supports: gtk3, gnome shell, gtk2, metacity
Notes:
* unpack and place theme in /usr/share/themes
you may have to use the command [quote]gksu nautilus[/quote] to gain permission.
* Ubunut Software Center--white text on white background bug:
the fix for this is: in the terminal type
sudo gedit /usr/share/software-center/ui/gtk3/css/softwarecenter.css

The overlay scrollbars are invisible for gtk3 applications on my system (Ubuntu Precise). And Thunderbird just doesn't look right at all... and I use it a lot.

And there is also one other issue, I forgot to mention before... The slected/suggested buttons are too white, so it becomes inconsistant with the rest of the looks, and the tekst becomes unreadable.
What version of Ubuntu and Gnome are you using?

The different versions of the Gnome base we use could explain the glitches on buttons and overlay scrollbars. But I don't know how it comes that you have Precise with Gnome 3.2...

----> cut & paste <----
style "ff"
{
text[NORMAL] = "#000000"
base[NORMAL] = "#FFFFFF"
}
class "GtkInvisible" style "ff"
widget "GtkInvisible" style "ff"
----> cut & paste <----
Should work with just about every theme. If you sort out how to make the text cursor visible using this I'd appreciate knowg how you did it.

as far as the cursor, mine is slightly visible. It depends on the ntext_color: value specified for gtk_color_scheme

I made some improvements, fixed the text cursor problem. I posted the entire fix in the changelog on the Cherry Bomb v3.4 Gnome shell theme.
Hopefully this will prove itself & be adopted a little more universally. I've done the userChrome.css patch in the past to make some dark themes usable but this is a little more elegant I think. This may be overridden by the userChrome.css method so if you've applied that you may have to get rid of it.
