Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
It's an Ambiance like Theme for Fluxbox, Icewm, Openbox, Lxde, Xfce, Gnome2/Mate & Gnome3 (Unity, Gnome-Shell, Gnome-Classic & Cinnamon). Gtk-3.16 and Cinnamon 2.8 compatible.
The objective is to have it working very well in all that environnements with a choice of 4 flavours.
NEW: set of grub2 themes. More infos : https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1160963/
INSTALLATION:
* open a Terminal in the folder where the file Crunchy-themes.tar.gz is
* and copy/paste this command line (Ubuntu like distros):
[indent]sudo tar -zxvf Crunchy-themes.tar.gz -C /usr/share[/indent]
(or if you are in Debian)
su
password
tar -zxvf Crunchy-themes.tar.gz -C /usr/share
Customization of the window-list extension in Gnome-shell
As we can't theme it, we have to change the original files. So we have to make copies of them before making the customization. In a terminal:
su
password
cd /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/window-list@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com
cp classic.css classic_Origin.css
cp stylesheet.css stylesheet_Origin.css
cp classic_Crunchy.css classic.css
cp stylesheet_Crunchy.css stylesheet.css
Setting the theme in Gnome
* Unity: you have to install and use Unity-tweak
* Gnome-Shell: Gnome-tweak (Advanced settings) must be used and the user theme plugin activated
* Cinnamon: in the control center / themes
Openbox rounded Buttons
If the display of the buttons is weird, just set the "active window title" font to the right size. Example : Ubuntu (regular) 11.
Gtk engines dependancy
Murrine & Unico are needed by the theme. To be sure they are installed:
[indent]sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-murrine gtk3-engines-unico[/indent]

I had to create a new page to make it work. I'd rather prefer to fix the present page with all the comment and feed back but didn't find a way for now.

To install directly the theme under Debian, if you downloaded it from here, its different than in Ubuntu :
su
password
cd downloads /*if the compressed file is there*/
tar -zxvf 136162-Crunchy-themes.tar.gz -C /usr/share

These days, I'm working on the menus of the gnome 3.14 and above apps. But I want that the theme still be compatible with ubuntu 14.04 LTS..
It's hard to be always up to date with all the changes made by the Gnome devs.

I agree. But, recently, they haven't changed API radically. Let's hope this state will continue.

In addition, in Google Chrome I see light blue-grey text color in context menus, bookmarks, etc. which I feel is not quite consistent with the rest of the theme although I cannot see anything about this in "chromium.rc". Can you please tell me how to tweak this?
Thanks a lot again for this great theme.

First of all, I must tell you that i really loved your work with crunchy themes. I am using ubuntu from last 1 year and from the day one I am using these themes.
Now for the request part... can you make a theme using colour theme of crunchy and squared ambiance
( http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Ambiance+Squared?content=151062 ) with colour theme of crunchy n panel ( i think it is called metacity not sure ) of squared ambiance.
I loved its close, minimize and maximize button.. in windowed and with global menu.
I know I am asking for more that I should but please... : will you please ?

You have a unity folder too with links to items in metacity-1 folder. Perhaps that links are broken. I don't know if it's usefull or not for Ubuntu but this folder is in all the original ambiance themes.
Sure I could do a squared buttons metacity theme but I would have liked it to be only a metacity theme not a gtk theme too. In Xfce you can choose a gtk theme with a different window decorator theme.. In Ubuntu/unity it's not that easy to do it.
