Description: One of the most colorful black desktops in Gnome returns with a second version called Black Beauty II. This is a more refined version, that is intended to be a little easier on the eyes as 1st version I made the mistake of using red for main text color. Red will only be seen on backdrop windows or those windows that are not active. Menubar is a little lighter than before and has that smokey type appearance. When pathbar is in use, the section you are on will be in green text, inactive will be in amber text. If you have not guessed, most text runs the stoplight motif as the rest of the theme. Borders dim when inactive and when active are not overly bright. Sliders have also been reduced in brightness along with prelights. Metacity is now cued into gtkrc which means there is a stunning change when using Gnome and Classic desktops for the upper stoplight bar. Those desktops use a different theme engine which produces unique colors on the upper bar. This theme worls well on Gnome 3.6 just as well as 3.8 minus Calendar is not a pretty on 3.6 as on 3.8. As before this theme has been tested on All Gnome desktops 3.6-3.8, LXDE and XFCE and works very nice and loads quick. My main intentions as always are to provide the quickest and best running theme, I can possibly make. Once again hours on end were spent in Black Beauty II's development as to provide a better running desktop with even fewer errors. As always I stand behind my themes and any problems will be quickly addressed by me as I only seek to make themes that will run correctly, swiftly and be easier and appealing to your eyes. It is also easier for users with this theme to easily change the color scheme if it does not suit their tastes. Hours of work was done to provide these options. You will not see #xxxxxx anywhere besides gtkrc, gtk-main.css and settings.ini. No more Metacity to worry about as this theme met that challege! Hope you will enjoy and all responses to improve on quality are deeply respected and appreciated. Keep it all adult and once again please do not spam!Last changelog:
tabs reference removed from gtkrc metacity 3 deleted. Unnecessary for gtk for over a year! Active window on bottom task bar is more easily seen as has been increased to lighter grayish black. Metacity-1 coded to gtkrc
