Description:

This is a modified version of the original Dust Sand theme created by rico-ambiesc. You can find the original one here:
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntu+Dust?content=88790

I made changes to the metacity theme buttons. I also made changes to the scroll bar, modified the colors of the GTK theme slightly and added dotted line to the Listview state.

If you are using the PPA(https://launchpad.net/~kwwii/+archive to install the theme in Ubuntu run this (sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-murrine)command in a terminal window after updating your /etc/apt/sources.list file

Nothing has changed with the theme I just added a Desktop Wallpaper.

I love your theme, can you make a theme with colors similar to this: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Moondust?content=124578?

I figured colors can't be changed completely.

thanks

Hi, I love the theme and want to use it, but there is only one problem:

When I have a program open, like GEdit or Firefox, which has a "File, Edit, etc..." menu bar, then it looks fine. But, as soon as something like Appearance or Software Centre is open, which has no menu bar, then there is a difference in colour between the Metacity decoration and the rest of the window.

I have no knowledge of creating themes, so I wonder if that could be adjusted? So that no matter whether there is a menu bar or not, it always looks unified?

Thanks!
Etienne

Hello, I really like your work on this theme, but, because of my invariably focusing on details, I NEED to change the scrollbar colour, yes :) So I'll be able to sleep quietly...

Could you tell me please how to do this, witch line do I have to change or add in gtkrc file ?

Thanks already for reply, and sorry for my english, I'm not quite good, especially in vocabulary..

I'm sorry for responding so late to your comment but I've been busy:

I created several colors:

this is the blue color one:
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/download.php?content=92681&id=6&tan=64883981

You can change the colors by going into the /home/<username>/.themes/Dust Mac/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

open it with text editor or any other text editor and you will see a line that starts with "gtk_color_scheme" in this line you will see "nselected_bg_color:#4382DC"

the color(#4382DC) could be any color you like as long as it is in this rgb format.

He's still president until January 20. That said, this isn't the place for political commentary. Leave the politics out of this site, please.

Nope. There are VERY FEW times and places where political discourse is actually inappropriate. People don't discuss politics enough, which is why the world sucks right now.
