Description: Don't vote BAD without telling us why you think the theme is bad. It really discourages themers like us, and quite a few themers have left GNOME-Look because of this.
The Cool Suite of themes is a new set of themes I am writing as an experiment. I wanted a clean, light theme that was simple and elegant.
This theme includes a nice, compact Metacity theme designed to get rid of those ugly padded borders usually seen in most Metacity themes. (I'd like to give a shout out to the author of the X-Colors Lite Metacity and Clearlooks Compact Metacity themes)
On the colors and design: Highlighting text and selected items rarely get any love from themers (AFAIK), so I set out to see what would happen if I tried to make it look a little nicer. This is it.
Each color has been carefully chosen to make the theme look great in light and dark conditions, on all widgets, and on selected items and text.
This theme is speedy. Try it out and leave me a comment/favorite/etc. I thrive on feedback so let me know if you want new colorschemes, designs, or anything else.
NOTE: The JPEG screenshots (the PNG was over 300kb) doesn't really do the theme justice. You have to try it out.Last changelog:
It seems in your preview that there is an icon in action button (e.g Cancel button), but there are none after I try the theme. Is there any way I could do it?
Sure. In the gtkrc file (~/.themes/Cool Breeze/gtk-2.0/gtkrc), delete or comment out the line that says "gtk-button-images = 0". I believe it's Line 9.

I am going to try it out.. J
Thanks! Didn't mean to sound snippy, just wanted to try it out! ;)
No problem. BTW, you didn't come off as snippy. Just helpful. ;)
This theme is speedy. Try it out I would, except when you click the download link you get a screenshot. ;)
Link fixed. Sorry.
Sorry about that. The link is fixed now.
