Is there a way to improve IDEA 9 Community Edition Look & Feel?

Previously, IDEA versions had their own skin and looked very beautiful. But the new version of 9CE has a really strange appearance and includes: by default, this is IDEA 4.5 (!!!), which looks like an application in 1998, there are also windows (everyone knows that the Java window style is different on windows) and several other styles taken from linux. Oh, yes, I forgot about metal)) It's very difficult to work with such an ugly IDE.

So my question is, can I use the old IDEA theme (for example, it was available in 9 beta versions)? Or any other ideas on how to improve your appearance and feel? Or maybe his only problem with mines and others have normal skin?

Previous versions of IDEA used a third-party commercial Look & Feel called Alloy . Unfortunately, it has many problems and is no longer supported (the last release was in 2003). Since this is a commercial L&F, we do not have a license to associate it with the free version of our product (IDEA community version). However, it is still available in the Ultimate Edition. If you have a license for this Look & Feel, you can install and use it separately with Community Edition.
