The quick way to change the colors is to edit the file gtk-3.0/gtk.css inside the theme's folder. But please don't blame me, if it doesn't work in all places.

great theme, but for me, the selection in Nautilus (Files) is White (not transparent).
Thank you for you work!

the theme is good and its also easy to read on the codebase. Grey is a popular color and the design is simple , but to be honest complicated design are not better at all.
Like the thin line patch very much. Did search for hours for it. Its one of the changes in gtk3.12 that are not understandable !!

Then you could perhaps also produce a dark variant with only titlebar, menubar and toolbar bgcolors the same as selected menu title (very dark grey) as an alternative to Ambiance ;-)

What part is not compatible with Ubuntu 14.04?
I probably won't create a replacement script. There are more and more changes in GreyBird that I'm not willing to take into CobiBird.

1) A white window border stopping at the titlebar edges.
2) A line between Nautilus titlebar and toolbar.
3) Imperfection in the edges of Nautilus location buttons.

It seems that this great theme is not fully compatible with gtk 3.12 yet. Is it planned to release a new version fixing this? If not, I would like to ask that.

sudo chown login /usr/share/themes
Instead of the word login, add the name of your login.
You can then integrate the theme into the directory manually.
