This is just a modification of Dust Metacity with a blue prelight to match with my preferred colour schemas

Hope you like it!

9 + Dust is my favourite scheme for years
Exactly what I was looking for, so very beautiful. Thank you kindly good sir.
I love your theme! I was wondering how I might go about altering it so that the title-bar is transparent, like in the million vista mockups. I don't know much about theme writing, but I'm willing to dig into the xml file and experiment, I just don't know how to do that. Thanks!
I gave a negative because it was pesky to revert back to DUST. I had to completely remove dust and your modification before I could reinstall dust and get back to normal. Your Mod really needs to be a complete theme with its own name. Otherwise, it actually looks fine, just not to my taste (this week).
Using it having the buttons on the left side it doesn't looks good; maybe another version?
It's like the metacity theme of the GTK2.x theme named "Ubuntu Dust",yes? btw,what's the name of you cursor theme? I like it.
Yes it's the same artwork with color changed to blue...The cursor theme are Oxygen cursor theme of kde4...In ubuntu you can simply type sudo apt-get install oxygen-cursor-theme to install it... Regards and thanks, Tommaso.
I like your metacity theme very much,but I think it will be almost perfect if you make 3 little changes: 1st, it's better if the seperator between the "Maximize" button and the "Close" button is removed; 2nd, there is a line which seperates the three buttons and the field below them, I think that it will look better if it is removed; 3rd, there is a tiny margin at the bottom of the window when the window is not maximized, I want it to be removed. Afer the 3 changes, your metacity theme and the GTK theme will be one!
