GlowLeopard

GTK2 Themes by joinfh2s 17 comments

You may want to check your download package.

I'm getting a folder hierarchy of home/join/.themes/GlowLeopard

If I didn't think to check for hidden files, I would not have found your theme!

Other than that, you did a nice job. I'm look forward to your improvements. - Nov 01 2008
ClearGlow

GTK2 Themes by fmrbpensador 45 comments

This glow series has been my favorite as of late. I even like the scroll bars.
I don't think they are too dark, it provides some balance with the toolbar and metacity. If you brighten up the highlight on the scrollbar, it will just look like a bisected box and you lose the glossy effect. If you lighten the whole thing up, you're basically introducing another color. Granted, that lighter gray may exist in the gradients... but I still think it would unbalance the overall look. Just my two cents, and it's not worth much more than that!

Your work with the Aurora engine has been some of the best I've seen, but you've really found something nice with this current murrine/clearlooks effort.

As for the icons... omg, post a link already! Your version of "not really perfect" is still better than most! - Aug 30 2008

Good job!
Thanks for contributing your time.
However, I actually like the wallpaper even more!

Would you mind sharing or pointing me in the right direction? - May 24 2008

I like your style.

Minimal with subtle flare. I like the contrast quality, although I might use a little more saturation with the highlight color... but I can be heavy handed. Either way, it's an understated elegance.
Very nice. - May 06 2008

I sometimes get annoyed with previews,
however...

Dude! that looks great so far. Impressive as usual.

Dark seed 2

GTK2 Themes by murasame 7 comments

This is probably my favorite of your themes so far.

While I may not like all the colors you choose in your various themes, I appreciate that you dive into colors other than the standard gray and blue.

The icons are a great and needed touch.

Again, I appreciate your use of color.
Great choice.
This is a very good dark theme, great balance. I like it a lot.

Thanks for your time!

Now, after a closer look I see a pixel thin bleed of the purple color at the top left of the metacity, and a little on the top right as well. Is this intentional? - May 03 2008

Your attention to detail is impressive!
There is a almost tactile sense to this theme, as if it were a physical object.

I'm also surprised by the responsiveness.
Arguments against the pixbuff engine aren't really a factor with your themes. ;)
They look too good for me to care!

Thanks for your enthusiasm, and I appreciate the time you take to give advice to others. - Apr 09 2008
You may need to install the gtk+ dev files if you haven't done so already. - Apr 08 2008

Thanks! I have been looking for something like this...
Aesthetically, it makes more sense to grab the gtk color theme. I'm surprised we don't see this approach more often. - Mar 18 2008

It looks like Panther ii has been removed.

Would you be able to provide a package?
Or is that bad etiquette? - Feb 16 2008

Not bad for your first time.

Most people don't bother to contribute.
Thanks for giving a damn! - Dec 17 2007

Icon Sub-Sets by 89c51 6 comments

I've been using this theme more and more. Each time I find something new to appreciate. I am continually surprised by the versatility of this theme.

You paid attention to a lot of details, and it shows. Great job.

However:
The arrow keys in Nautilus are a little too rounded, they almost look blurry. That's the only thing I would want changed.

The green arrow buttons look great sitting there in the folder, they just don't translate to Nautilus very well.

I like the saturation, vibrant without looking like a peice of candy.

However, I am also interested in the GTK scheme, particularly in the tab-like style pictured in the top bar. I don't recognize the theme, and I've been looking for a while now. Could anyone point me in the right direction? - Mar 05 2007
