The Charlotte theme can be found here:
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=154785 - Oct 18 2012
I wasn't going to upload Charlotte because I felt it was "your" theme since you made the changes.. I merely did the graphics work. However, if you don't mind sharing I will indeed upload it as a new theme. Thank you very much :) - Oct 18 2012
I'm glad that worked for you :) - Oct 17 2012
Ok, I found a new technique that lets me change gradients and I've finished the theme you requested. Please download the theme from this link and see if it meets your needs:
http://ardchoille.nfshost.com/public/GTK2-Charlotte.tar.gz - Oct 16 2012
Unfortunately the image you supplied isn't going to work. This image has a gradient and it will look horrible when tiled across a window. If you can find an image that doesn't have a gradient applied to it I can use it and this would be an easy project. - Oct 16 2012
The green buttons in my screenshot are part of the icon theme and will change with your desired icon theme. The red items and background texture can be changed easily. I"ll get this done today. - Oct 16 2012
Which components are you wanting to change (buttons,progressbar, etc.)? And which colors are you thinking about? - Oct 15 2012

Roxy has been updated. I enhanced the gradient on the scrollbars and stepper buttons a bit. - Aug 15 2012
Let me see if I can enhance that gradient a bit on the scrollbars without taking anything away from the idea of the theme. I'll keep you posted. - Aug 15 2012

Ok, I got the screenshot open and I can see gradients on the scrollbar and stepper buttons in that screenshot.

Thank you very much for making an openbox theme to match Roxy :) - Aug 15 2012
That link won't open for me, just continues loading indefinitely. However, I can assure you that there is a gradient on the scrollbar and stepper buttons. The whole theme is designed to be subtle so the gradients shouldn't be glaring. Perhaps new glasses are in order? - Aug 15 2012
The slider and steppers have gradients. Can you provide a screenshot and system info? I may be able to fix this for you, it's working perfectly on my systems. - Aug 15 2012

I'm glad that fixed the issue. Thank you very much for reporting it so I could help make the theme better. - Aug 14 2012
I'm not sure why you're seeing that issue, I'm not seeing it on any of my systems. Regardless, I have made a correction to the theme and uploaded the new version (ver. 1.1). Please try this new version and see if the problem is resolved. - Aug 14 2012
I'm unable to reproduce that issue when using this theme on my Linux Mint system. I've checked the theme and it seems fine, I don't see a problem anywhere that would produce this issue.

Try unpacking the theme manually into either ~/.themes or /usr/share/themes and see if the problem is resolved. - Aug 13 2012

One of the best things about Linux is choice. You want to take our choices away? If someone wants to make their Linux box look like OSX then that is their choice. Stop trying to take choice away. I'll buy a mac when it's open and free like Linux is. Quit your whining. - Sep 19 2011

This theme uses the pixmap engine. Yeah, Firefox and Thunderbird don't respect GTK themes, that's why I stopped using those apps. Hopefully Mozilla will implement things into their apps that respect the users' themes and we won't have to go out of our way to make our desktops look nice. - Feb 23 2011
