Description:
A gtk theme that takes inspiration from the Metro UI that windows phone 7 uses.

This theme is pretty fast, scoring an average of 13 secs in the gtkperf on a pentium4 machine running ubuntu 10.10 32-bit.

Screenshot 1: Shows the panel, gtk, nautilus elementary.

Screenshot 2: Dark theme.

Installation:
1)Download
2)Open the location of the downloaded file
3)Drag that file onto the Appearance Window, on the theme tab.

Install the panel:
1)Right click on empty space in panel, select Properties
2)Background tab and select background image.
3)Go to the theme folder and then the panel folder, and select panel.png

Some help needed:
1) How to match widgets for specific rc files.

Focus for the next release: color variations, and a metacity theme.

I cannot download the dark theme, it says error 404. Would it be possible to republish it somewhere? Thanks for the themes.

I was expecting your theme for all this week. I have a few things to say, if you don't mind: *You can remove the gradient part from window toolbars, perhaps it would be better if you make it just white as the rest. *clock applet text color should be darker i think. *add a blue scollbar option as well *evolution has an inbox text with blue background, does not look nice, you can change either bg color or text color to white, pick one. It is seems a very good theme with enough amount of minimalism. People were begging for a new concept without osx-ish look.

The toolbar has a gradient to differentiate it from the main content. I guess I forgot about that. Maybe, but I'm planning a dark version and multiple colors, not just blue. I uninstalled evolution so I wouldn't have known. Thanks for informing me. I don't know what I can do about it though... And thanks a lot. :D

I just installed evolution, and I don't get your problem, I think.
