From the looks of it, this theme looks great. But unfortunately I get some errors when trying to change to the gtk2 theme with gtk-chteme:

/usr/share/themes/Aerials/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:57: error: unexpected identifier `scrollbar_color', expected character `}'

I see that three times. I have tried to meddle a bit with the gtkrc file, with without any luck.

Where can I find the wallpaper in the second screenshot, the blue that fades into a teal colour?

Sure it is not a problem of a recent glibc update? It is strange that a little modification on a gtkrc (just a color change) wilpl cause glibc error... :)

Iv'e installed your theme but the buttons have the default gtk look instead of the round smooth look that the screen shots show. Plz help me figure out the problem.

Open up Aerials' gtkrc in a text-editor and comment out the "scrollbar_color" and "animation" variables. Then it will work.

Selected menu-items have white text on a white background. Is this a bug or is this related to Ubuntu's version of Clearlooks?

Probably it's a bug... or I have fixed it in the 1.2 that it's nearly ready to be uploaded (tonight)

... to be exact. That engine is needed by the theme, it does not work with plain clearlooks Ubuntu is shipped with...

Ubuntu's Clearlooks is not Cairo-enabled. Open up Aerials' gtkrc in a text-editor and comment out the "scrollbar_color" and "animation" variables. Then it will work.

It works with gnome 2.14 since cairo was merged in gtk-engines since 2.6.7. (now 2.6.8 is the updated version)

Hm, how did you get rid of the window decorations of your terminal?

Report

Ashura

Meh, I'm stupid. The option to turn off the window decoration was there all the time.

Report

Are you talking about the default gnome-terminal?
Where is this 'disable window decoration' option?

Report

It's Terminal, the xfce4-svn terminal emulator. Let me know if you need more info (distro?)

Hm, so it is from Xfce 4.4, is it?

I still have version 4.2 around here and will wait until it gets into the repositories.
