Really liked the look of this theme from the previews and it was perfect for my ThinkPad but unfortunately I'm running Gnome 3.24 so I don't think i can install this? If anyone knows if I can please drop me a reply.

Installing from github everything is OK but there is not Firefox theme (userChrome.css).
Can You make a Vertex Red theme? Thanks in advance.

The gtk theme doesn't work for me in 3.20. The window borders are extremely small and I can't resize anything.

Have you tried to install it from source?

I don't know anything about installing from source, but I followed the instructions in the readme and got this error when trying to "sudo make install":

It was my fault, the symlink from 3.20 to 3.18 in the gnome-shell folder was corrupted, I've fixed the files, try to clone or download the theme again from the github page, repeat the steps and let me know.

Ok I was able to install it from source and everything worked, except that the maximize, minimize, and close buttons are invisible.

As you can see in the screenshot some widgets are also invisible.

Try to restart the shell: Atl+F2 type r and press enter.

Or try to Reinstall via source (following the procedure in the readme) and this time add --with-gnome=3.20
