2) Duh. I downloaded the version which didn't require murrine SVN. Sorry for that useless comment :)
3) I'm referring to where the (dark) metacity border borders light portions of an application. I think it looks particularly bad with applications that have toolbars.
For example, in your screenshots, I think it looks awkward to have the dark metacity border to the left of your nautilus toolbar. That's just my opinion though. |

Sorry, have one more comment:
4) Dark menus: I think it'd look better to use @bg_selected_color/@text_color to color the background/text (respectively) of selected menus and hovered-over menuitems.
I.e.:
style "clearlooks-menubar"
{
...
bg[SELECTED] = @bg_selected_color
...
fg[PRELIGHT] = @text_color
...
}
to color the menubuttons. This makes it *much* easier to see which menu I'm currently in and which menuitem my mouse is hovering over (if you extend the change to menuitems as well). |

Great theme as usual, however, I've got a few comments:
1) I think the theme looks more elegant if you use a radius of 2.0 on the buttons. (Obviously a personal opinion :)
2) What do we need the latest murrine for? I'm not finding any traces of the murrine engine in the gtkrc.
3) The most awkward looking part of the theme is (of course) the transition from the darkened areas to the lighter areas. Where, for example, a menubar meets a toolbar, you could add a more defined separating element. But in other places, particularly where the metacity theme's borders meet the light sections of an application, things look really awkward. I'm not sure what the best way to deal with that is.
Anyway, great work as usual! |

I agree 100% with DBO. This theme looks absolutely great, but it does not have enough contrast to be usable. |

I've just installed your theme, but the way you've referenced colors in your .gtkrc isn't working on my system. That is, the line:
gtk_color_scheme = "fg_color:#D4D4D$..."
isn't being accepted by GTK. If I manually replace every instance of @fg_color with "#D4D4D4", then the colors are rendered correctly. Is anyone else having this issue? |

Thanks for letting me know--I'm much happier knowing it's a compiz limitation and not all of our designers' tastes. |

Just as a side comment--I didn't mean to bash your theme directly: I think it's a great replacement for the Ubuntu window border. In fact, I just voted it up. |

Jul 26 2006 on content Human for Compiz |
I've held off on asking this for as long as compiz themes have been showing up, hoping that I'd mess around with the thing myself and answer my own question. However . .
Side notes:
With compiz, we've got a window decorator that provides absolutely rock-solid performance with drop shadows enabled; and we've also got some new keyboard shortcuts that allow us to modify the window size without having to drag a window border. So, I absolutely cannot get over the fact that every compiz theme has a window border that's 5px+ thick.
So, my question is: are these borders all 5px thick because of a limitation of the current compiz modification methods, or am I just one of an extremely small minority of people who think thick window borders are absolutely unflattering? |

Yep, pretty much. If you're not installing a port or using FreeBSD sources (i.e.: what you get when you checkout the 'src' module from CVS or what is under /usr/src if you chose to install the kernel sources via /stand/sysinstall), then you'll most likely need to use gmake. So, everything you get off of kde-look.org should most certainly be gmaked.
There are, of course, exceptions to the rule: for example, XFree86 and Xorg both use `imake', which is usually shipped with the X sources (although imake is also offered as port).
Happy building,
