It is designed to be used with Gaia4Gnome-CM (Metacity theme) by sidman, which is part of the Gaia4Gnome set:

This is the reason for the choice of colours.
It was made because I liked the Divinorum widget theme, but wanted it to match the window borders as well.
2008.03.22: As noted by Sunsparc, this theme depends on the Murrine engine:

2007.12.17: To fix colour issues in some apps (relevant to unreadable text colours), please see the description for the original Divinorum; the author has provided detailed instructions for working around this issue in several common apps. The userContent.css file is also already included in this theme's tarball (carried over from the original). Thanks to neoire for reminding me.

Sweet work!! I've not found another theme carrying the range of colors you have incorporated with a similar flair of understated elegance. Glad I found your contribution for those of us looking for quality themes. Thanks again.
Might want to note about the gtk murrine engine, in case some people dont have it installed. I was getting errors (Ubuntu) and had to install gtk-engine-murrine to get it to stop.
You did a great job matching the colors! I love the glassier look (compared to the original Divinorum themes) of the highlights and progress bars Any chance of making other colors? I love the way they mix.
Thanks for your kind words. :) I'm still tweaking something tentatively called "Divinorum-Fire" (it's not as exciting as it might sound; the colours still don't look right, and it just doesn't look smooth enough yet). It's meant to go with a modified version of the Radial (Emerald theme) by aceph (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=71352). I haven't planned any more colour schemes... I'm open to suggestions, though. I was hoping this might inspire other (more creative, more talented) people to make more dark themes. :)
Goes great with https://addons.mozilla.org/it/thunderbird/addon/2106 and https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/4521 :)
Been using it for 2 days now, it's really pretty. One question though, how do you deal with websites with white backgrounds when the fonts are white as well? I have to highlight before I can read...
You're right; I forgot to mention the "dark theme fixes" which the original Divinorum theme (see the link in the description) already provides. In fact, the userContent.css is still included in the tarball for this theme. I need to update the description here to mention it. Thanks for the reminder, and sorry for the trouble.
Worked like a charm. Thank you for the great theme.
I really like this theme, it goes in well with my decoration, I hope to see more stuff from you. Can I have that background image you use for the Terminal? Thanks.
Glad you like it. :) The background image used in the gnome-terminal was part of the Crown Wallpaper Pack by enspia, found here: http://enspia.deviantart.com/art/Crown-Wallpaper-Pack-42858422
