Description:
zniavre theme changed to clearlooks engine (best with clearlooks svn or hardy included)

i tried to make it as most readable as possible in all situation

bring a readable solution for:
alt+f2 dropdownmenu
gnome-launcher
gnome-control-center
wxwidget apps
arrow in treeview
calendar
combobox font color
panel font color

modify a bit metacity
Last changelog:

changed engine to clearlooks (it look better with clearlooks from svn or hardy's repos)

Minor change >less compact buttons
(screenshot 3)

changed general font color

there is some strange errors with open office the gimp alls wxwidget apps (still readable but...) since last update also compizconfig-settings-manager too
the only way to adjust the readabilty is to use those apps with regular theme
so i launch them with default theme (murrine-human) .
i modified all the launcher in "alacarte" (e.g for vlc >env GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Human-Murrine/gtk-2.0/gtkrc vlc)

or any theme you want you ll just need to complete the path >env GTK2_RC_FILES=~/.themes/personnal_theme/gtk-2.0/gtkrc vlc

minor font color improvement (bis)

I combine it with Sudubuntu icons and it looks really cool!

Robico

But I think it would be cooler to change the description colors. To make them different then window colors. Maybe light orange or something?

scrawl

Really nice theme, and yet the first that installs correctly on my Ubuntu Hardy :O But could you please add icons to GTK buttons? with your theme I cannot see them anymore.

hi ! big thank you its great to read your message.

Hi, I have completely deleted the theme (even in /home/user/.theme), and I have reinstalled, it is always the same. In my opinion they are the colors for "Window / Backlights Plan" which is not good but it is grayed out so I can't see colors parameterized ... Bye ! (You are going to find the problem of color between 8.04 and 7.10) ;D

Hi, I don't have the same colours as you ! http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/251/capturear2.png I have Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy.

zniavre

i still do not understand this time it's ok even if i delete every piece of my theme try to delete every thing too and may be if you are not tired of me reinstall it it looks like if you do not have clearlooks engine, what i m quite sure you got installed. desolé pour les tracas.

Hi, The theme is not installed! --> "The file format is not valid". :-(( http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/5034/erreurhp2.png And in controls, it installs 2 controls. http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/931/controlrs8.png Bye !

zniavre

hello / bonsoir just updated the gtk theme it's now ok you should try again if you do not mind really sorry

I especially like the matte finish to this with the glowing outlines. Its subtle on the eyes with just the right amount of eye candy to it. A nice deviation from the shiny plastic of some other dark themes.

Hi zniavre, I really like your theme. Unfortunately there a couple of issues I wonder if could be changed. The gray text font is too light to read in the file browser, terminal etc. Is there a way to change it to black? I'd personally like to see the scroll bars a little lighter in shade. Same thing with the menu cursor/bar. Navigating menus can get a little difficult when it blanks out the text. Perhaps a lighter shade of gray? Other than that, keep up the good work :)

zniavre

hello thank you for comments in fact if i change the font color to black (darker color) it makes some new errors in some arrow button, i do not know how to resolve it i will try to work on it as soon as possible check screenshot >http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/9264/test3dp2.jpg i do not really understand your last point about the menu cursor/bar. could you explain me if you want ? (im a bit french it some time difficult to understand exactly) really thank you trying to help me to finish this theme au revoir / see you

Smarteyeball

I think I mean the highlight bar. When you mouse over an entry the words disappear because the bar is the same colour as the background. http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/9071/highlightbaras1.jpg I hope this helps. BTW, your English is better than my French ;) Babel Fish Translation: Je pense que je veux dire la barre de point culminant. Quand vous souris au-dessus d'une entrée les mots disparaissez parce que la barre est la même couleur que le fond. J'espère que ceci aide. BTW, votre anglais est meilleur que mon Français ;)

zniavre

sorry i do not understand what exactly hapenned but ... my theme is suposed to be as in this screenshot http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/643/test3nz9.jpg hope it help you to resolve our problem :o) see you

Smarteyeball

Fixed it! I realized I did not have the murrine engine installed. Now it looks like it is supposed to. It looks even better. Thank you for your help. Keep up the good work :)

Shalakhin

twodogs
