I did some distro "assessment" a few weeks ago and i've switched to Mint 9 xfce (not quite answering your question).
I wasn't very keen on purple and the other changes and i wanted the less sophisticated desktop. I didn't mind brown - i just got used to it. I preferred Mint's green to xubuntu's midnight blue [too dark].
Surely it's easier to change the colour of your desktop than to change distributions?!
I mean if I decide I like xubuntu but not the colours then the solution surely is to play with what's available in the "Xfce 4 Settings Manager" Appearance and Window Manager utilities rather than throwing out xubuntu and trying something else.
