Description: I was just playing around trying to learn how to theme with the new Gtk3 CSS.
I started with the Zukitwo code from lassekongo83 (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Zukitwo?content=140562) and attempted to recreate one of my old themes.
I tried to keep the Gtk2 amd Gtk3 versions as close as possible to keep consistency across apps.
Here is the output, hope it's OK.Last changelog:
Just did a system update and strange pink elements appeared.
Sussed out the problem and uploaded a new version.
Was asked to modify the metacity for use with left handed buttons. This is uploaded in the second link. Thanks to digphan for testing.
One request though, could you add an option (or even a alternate theme) that reverses the title bar for those of us with or close/minimise/maximise buttons on the left side instead of right side?
What part does not work? Is the grey part of the titlebar not on the left or is it that the buttons are not on the left?
Perhaps it is some other fault. Please can you describe the fault?
In that case, I would delete the metacity-1 folder from witin the theme folder. Then try again to extract the mtacity-1 folder.
If you still have a problem please let me know.
I think you've got a very good thing going here. There are a few things on nautilus that could use some work though. Keep working, this theme has a lot of potential!
The sidebar is a little inconsistent with the menubar. You might consider using a gradient. It would also be really slick if you could make the sidebar match the file view as well.
Ah, I like your thinking. Unfortunately the sidebar gradient also applies to the entries on the sidebar so you get an ugly mass of repeating gradients. I may find a way around it but I'm not there at the moment.
When you say make the sidebar match the file view, do you mean make the two panes the same?
Thanks for your feedback.
Great Theme! But can you make a Folder "Salinx"?
The tar.gz file have only gtk-3.0 etc Folders
Thx

Thanks for your input and for testing the modifed left handed version.
Hm. Can't get the left hand version working.

I merged the Left Hand Metacity folder and I get some very basic looking top window bar.
In that case, I would delete the metacity-1 folder from witin the theme folder. Then try again to extract the mtacity-1 folder. If you still have a problem please let me know.

Thanks for your kind comments. I wondered what parts of nautilus could be improved. Please can you elaborate?
