Description: This uses my favourite bits of Ubuntulooks, Clearlooks-cairo to give a shinny but unobtrusive theme.
###Requires clearlooks-cairo (which is 'unstable' software) and ubuntulooks to work properly###
A work in progress: Todo: * Change tab colours * Make a metacity * Work out how to draw menu items, list headers etc as shiny Ubuntulooks buttons * Draw square (not rounded) buttons
Suggestsions more than welcome (especially if you have an opinion on whether the text/menu highlight is too bright)
This is awesome. Given I'm running Gentoo, there are no ebuilds (afaik) for clearlooks-cairo so I got the source from CVS and built just clearlooks with cairo for this, and this theme looks beautiful. :)
Sorry forgot to reply with my suggestions. As you said I think the menu highlight is a little bright - perhaps it could be slightly darker so as the white text is more contrasted. Also, you say you want to make the buttons (OK/Cancel/etc I assume) square - I think they look really good how they are. Looks very modern.
When I first say Ubuntulooks/Human, my first thought was, "wow, that'd look amazing with the Clearlooks-cario scrollbars instead." However, laziness took it's toll, and I never got around to it. Glad someone else did it so I didn't have to :P

I don't like the colors, but I modified the gtkrc to use colors I used in my own ubuntulook and clearlooks themes. Nice work mish-mashing them though
