Description:
Ubuntu Next Generation 5.0
A modest attempt at making a new default ubuntu theme. While preserving the basic 'ubuntu-colors' I tried to make a theme that is more soothing to the eyes, and creates a nice and calm work-environment.
Visually I tried to incorporate a partial shadow of the ubuntu-logo within the top-window-frame. Gtk-theme and Metacity-theme work together into creating this effect.
A good metacity theme is one that is only visually present when you need it. Therefore the metacity-buttons - or should I say 'circles'- only visually highlight when you move the cursor over them.
The menu's are all consistently with a black background.
This theme goes well with a dark (black) wallpaper.
About the screenshots:
A kean themer will have noticed that I have created a heavily modified version of the 'Slickness'-theme made by Th3Rob
Icon-theme: Oxygen-Refit2 - Orange Version
Wallpaper: a modified version of 'distro balls' by Jackfox05. This modified version is in the download-package.
The font I use is: HandelGotDlig, which you will also find in the downloadfile with install-instructions.
Installing:
Within the download-file you can find the 'installation instructions' documents. There's a special file included that modifies the fontcolor of the panel to white, in case you have a black font in the panel. Just drag and drop this ".gtkrc-2.0" file in your home folder, logout and login again and it should be changed to white.
Please comment, rate or make suggestions..
Yes, I know that Gnome looks is fed up with yet another ubuntu theme and that linux is not all about ubuntu, but please rate it on its merits...
Ubuntu-bashing seems to be popular.
Changelog:
Changed the black-menu-button in the panel to get a uniform look when using a top-panel.
Added an excellent Emerald-theme made by Mariux especially for this theme !
If you have installed version 1.0 of this theme then remove it before you install version 2.0
Upgraded to version 3.0
Iconsize of the main-menu-items changed to 24x24 as suggested by Schollidesign
Please de-install previous version before installing version 3.0, log-out and log-in again afterwards
Some graphics refined in 4.0
Minor adjustments in 5.0
