Description: Important note: This theme is designed around Gnome 3.4 and the 1.0.2 version of the Unico engine. I do not work with any development releases. This theme will break in Gnome 3.5.
The included INSTALL file have all the installation instructions.
GTK3 ENGINE REQUIRED This theme requires the Unico GTK3 engine version 1.0.2 or later. (Only if you are using Gnome 3 or GTK3 applications.) - https://launchpad.net/unico (Available as gtk-engine-unico in ArchLinux community repo.)
GTK2 ENGINES REQUIREMENT If you don't install these engines - GTK2 applications will not be styled. So it's NOT a bug if for example GIMP or Firefox looks like Windows 98. It is just you who have not installed the gtk2 engines.
- GTK2 engine Murrine 0.98.1.1 or later - GTK2 pixbuf engine or the gtk(2)-engines package
Other: Search for the engines in your distribution's repository or install the engines from source.

The left bar is avant-window-navigator. The theme is included.
KNOWN ISSUES/BUGS/DECISIONS - In some flavors of Gnome 2.32 the right-click menu on some panel applets have a white text and uses the pixmap hover effect. There is no known fix for this.
- Dialog windows in Gnome 3 fallback mode have weird borders. My current recommendation is that you detach them with gconf-editor. Open gconf-editor and untick this key: /desktop/gnome/shell/windows/attach_modal_dialogs.
- Legacy metacity theme is not borderless. (It does not look good.) Use gnome-shell to get anti-aliased rounded corners. ;-)
- The IDE software Eclipse/Aptana may have some strange color bugs. If you know of any fixes, please let me know.
- Xfce panel applets have some strange bugs. Possible cause is because you need to use a background image for your panel. This theme is not designed to be used with a trillion inconsistent panel applets.Last changelog:

A million thanks for this great theme which integrates so well with my Chromium browser (see http://dl.dropbox.com/u/39189022/chromium_zukini.png) while many other themes leave the default blue color in the tab bar.
But I wish it had a similar (seamless) appearance in in Nautilus (i.e. without the left and top separator line in the toolbar), in LibreOffice (without the top separator line in toolbar and format bar, and with the same shade of grey in the format bar), in Thunderbird (i.e. without the top separator line in the toolbar) etc.
I know, this might be partly a preferential matter but I think it is partly a matter of consistency as well.
I would appreciate very much such an "improvement" or a little tweaking help with those separator lines ;-)
I love this theme, but only if it could have a couple of color variants other than green to match icon themes like Elementary and Oxymentary.
It must be a matter of Search and Replace in a number of files, although I know nothing about theming.
Thank you for such a quick response, but unfortunately it didn't change that green color although I copied the Zukini folder and renamed as ZukiniOxymentary and then made that color code replacement in those GTK2 and GTK3 files and then selected this "new" theme in Gnome Tweak Tool. Strange. Either I miss something here or it's not that simple.
Any idea why panel icons (net, sound, etc) have less space between eachother?
Also popups from panel have hidden few pixels of top background (gray border).

I think it's nice, and a good addition to those gtk3 themes shat made really good and with a good taste.
I would like the glass buttons to look softer, less glassy.
Thank you and my + to you!

This theme is very nice but I am running Fedora with 3.6 Please port.
Please, port it to GTK 3.6 Thank you in advance!
where is the green in the new shell theme ?
Fixed. :)
the green is back but not in the calender and when i click on my name in the right of the panel. :)
No xfwm theme this time? :( but I like it.
Perfect work! Simple, beautiful ...
My new favorit theme. Thank You!
After Zukitwo you've created another beautiful theme. You're great! :)
Very nice. I usually stick to the blues and grays but the green is rather refreshing for a change. Nice work.

Open gtk.css and gtkrc in a text editor and replace #94ab82 with any other hex-color you would like to use. (#a2b8ca for example.)

Try to change the color in the settings.ini file too.
This did the job! Now I've got myself a ZukiniOxymentary theme! Thanks a lot...

Hmm. That's strange. Are you using any extensions on the top panel?
no, default settings from debian sid.
Is there a way to bring the troll back? I Just love the old style (even with that heart) :P
Hey Congratulations on another great theme my friend! You have done really great work as always!
