Description:

A very dark rich brown hybrid theme inspired by my DarkSuit theme. This is a theme I had envisioned for quite some time, a cross of Dust/DarkRoom, but could not develop a proper implementation of it. The metacity is taken from Sugar Ubuntu as it fits very well within this theme.

Any hang ups or bugs please advise me.

Good artwork.

I have some suggestions. The metacity fits the theme well but it has a usability issue as the buttons are too small and are hard to click. You might want to adjust it. The same thing goes for the scrollbars. They look really good but are hard to click because they are too thin.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks werz.

It seems many people are digging this theme with close to 2000 downloads in three(3) days, although the ratings are not an accurate measure.

Any more suggestions you or anyone has to offer, like I said in the description, please let me know and I will try to accomodate the community.

I will work on some upgrades this weekend. As far as usablilty, it should be up there with an RC status. I still have to set up a timeline on the project page and work a few more issues out, including an original metacity theme.

Thanks again.

I must say, it's very bug-free. It looks good on openoffice, evolution, abiword, and qgtkstyle (bug-prone apps).

Ever since your 2nd update, my window borders appear flat and are missing the window title and min/max/close buttons. Strangely enough, the metacity theme seems fine, i.e. it looks fine on other gtk themes. Any idea why that is?

Delete the version in your ./themes, download again, and reinstall.

Buggied version I was working on.

You need murrine 0.90.3 or trunk. Either will work fine. If you're on Jaunty, this version is installed by default.

Isnt this a clone of the SugarUbuntu-theme?

dashua

The only thing resembling Sugar is the metacity, which works well with this theme. Check the gtkrc and you'll see if it's a clone. ;)
