I honestly don't know if it's supposed to be green or yellow (the highlight color) but it surely doesn't play that well with the default humanity-icons (which are orange... you know... like oranges...)

Is there the option to change the colors with ubuntu build-in options?

Thank you. I corrected it in Yin. You can change the color you want in the gtkrc-file ...

gtk-color-scheme = nhuman_color:#******

I use a custom font but the sidebar font won't change when I choose a different application font.
The fonts in the main widow change.
This doesn't happen in other themes.
I'm on karmic.

you're right. I deleted the definition in Nautilus that all fonts are always "9" as size in Yang ... and submitted the change here. Ying will get all new parameters if Yang is 100%... stay tuned for version 0.8. ;)

Is there supposed to be an entry for it in Themes? As the only way to use this is choose manually the 'controls' and 'window border'.

Nice theme tho

Have you made the windows' titles invisible on purpose or is there a problem?

schollidesign

No, any problem, it's a wished effect. I think it's more EyeCandy without a title in the Metacity and it's o double information, because u have the name of those windows in the panel. Of course, if u use gnomebarX or a dock, u can rename the .xml-files in the Metacity-folder and u will have the titels on the Windowsdecorations. ;)

metacity-theme-1.xml -> metacity-theme-1_copy.xml

metacity-theme-1_copie_with_title.xml -> metacity-theme-1.xml

This is just what I'd been looking for! I have been using the "Inhuman" theme because I liked the gray, problem was, everything turned gray! Yours lightens the viewing area while toning it down from the bright white. Perfect!

There are so much nice themes out which haves a superficial beauty. But I generally I always missed the beauty in functional and realistic effects. So if I do a theme... it was a must for me to insert that what I missed always in the most of the themes I used and tried... ;)

well, you´ve done a great job :)
a really nice and eye pleasing dark theme
i just would change the yellow highlight to a more orange one, so it would look warmer and more humanized ;)

schollidesign

hehe thank u my friend :)
the color is right... no warm-tones, but signal-... attention-color was my goal in that theme. The Humanity-Set isn't warm-orange, too and I think it was a good decision. That theme fits very well with Humanity-Dark and was my concept if I did that dark-theme... ^^

How could I do a theme for Murrine?

schollidesign
10 years ago

There are many gtk-eninges out like murrine, aurora, nodoka, ...
Murrine is fast and quite good-looking. Murrine-Themes are f.example: Wasp, the Gtk-Themes
form Shiki-Colors and I think the orig. Human-Theme ... Gotham is special, because it uses the newest murrine-engine (development). I can't help u really, because I am a quite amateur in that stuffs. But take the sources and study it a little bit... A mix of murrine and pixpuf is possible and give u the power to make some nice themes... ;-)
