But no, I've got no plans to make a Gnome Shell theme. All I'd change is the highlight colour, and it's not worth the effort to keep it maintained. - Feb 26 2020

If you want to change the green then all you need to do is install the Ruby SASS modules, edit line 24 of gtk.scss (https://dev.ibboard.co.uk/repos/other/Adwaita-Dark-Green/file/e6f584bf0745/gtk-3.20/gtk.scss#l24) and run the "parse-sass.sh" script and the whole thing will recompile with your new colour - May 18 2017

The theme is built from SCSS files that are parsed to generate the CSS. I intentionally do not change the underlying common.scss etc so that I can easily compare between versions to see what issues I might need to fix. If I start making changes like that to the original Adwaita files rather than my override file then, no matter how small they start, they'll end up making it difficult to maintain.
It sounds like GTK 3.22 might have changed something. I'll see how big the changes are and whether the recent GTK stability means that I can back-port the standard GTK 3.22 Adwaita files as 3.20 theme files so that I don't have to maintain too many versions. - Feb 02 2017

This theme takes Adwaita, imports it, and then overrides some bits (base colours, menus, etc). Both of those warnings come from original Adwaita theme files. Without editing those files (which I avoid so as to keep my theme easy to maintain) I can't fix those errors.
Which version of GTK are you using? - Feb 02 2017

GTK3 Themes by IBBoard 24 comments
I've fixed that now and released 1.0.1. - Feb 01 2017

I'm not sure which bit you mean be the "crease". Can you show me an example?
Thanks. - Jan 24 2017

I've just looked at the theme and I can't see any light grey anywhere other than the highlights. At the moment then I don't know what causes it, as I've never seen it in the years I've used this theme.
Finally, toolbars are widgets, so they'd be affected by your GTK/Qt/other theme rather than the Metacity theme. - Apr 21 2014

From digging around, there are a few options:
1) Try the original Mediterranean Nights themes and see if they have the same issue for you
2) run "GTK2_RC_FILES=~/.themes/MediterraneanNightDarkGreen/gtk-2.0/gtkrc firefox" to see if Firefox is just ignoring the gtkrc file
3) Is there anything in ~/.xsession-errors after you run Firefox? If it isn't logging to the console then it might log there
4) Try the "GTK+ Native" theme (although IMO it isn't as nice as what the Default theme seems to do with my theme) https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/gtk-native/
My main thought at the moment is that either Firefox/LO aren't picking up the theme for some completely unknown reason, or your staging repo has change the GTK libraries to ones that Fx/LO aren't compiled against and they've changed in such a way that the apps still work but don't style. - Apr 15 2014

What version of GTK3 are you running? And if you run Firefox or LibreOffice from the command-line, do you get any errors out? - Apr 14 2014

I get a dark grey menu bar (if I show it), dark grey tab background, dark grey un-focused tabs and dark grey menus, the same as other GTK2 and GTK3 apps. The "Firefox" button (the one that appears when the menu bar is hidden) goes grey when I hover it, but I think that's an issue of Firefox using the menu bar colour on a non-menu bar area. There might be a way to fix it, but I'd have to crib someone else's code. - Apr 14 2014

(I think that includes everything, except the two edits I mentioned in the other comment, which you seem to have to make in the original places for some reason) - Apr 12 2014

In gtk-widgets.css, find "* {", replace "background-color: @…;" value with "background-color: none;". In ".window-frame {" add "background-color: @theme_bg_color;" and all seems to be good!
Now to see if I can get dark buttons in the header/title bar/whatever-they-call-it… - Apr 12 2014

*sigh*
Why do so few people make nice "dark but not too dark" themes? I don't want "so dark I have to squint" and I don't want "so bright that my eyes burn". I just want "mid-tones with dark menu bars". - Apr 12 2014

GTK3 Themes by trastes 265 comments
I mainly seem to use GTK2 apps and GTK3 apps that don't use the HeaderBar, so it looks a little ugly but it is better than the eye-searing brightness and bulkiness of Adwaita or the compromise of other themes (like Greybird, which is nice enough on most apps but not as good on the Polly Twitter client).
I managed to tweak a few bits last night by stealing some CSS snippets from Adwaita, but it was slow progress because it isn't well documented. - Dec 02 2013

For now I'm just coping, because it isn't unusable as it is, and this is the only decent theme with dark menus and mid-shade windows that I can find! - Dec 01 2013

Unfortunately, it appears to have gone. Which is a shame, because there aren't enough usable dark themes out there :\
Can someone else with a bit of artistic talent take over Zukitwo Dark instead? - Dec 01 2012

Gnome Shell Themes by sauravmajumder 1 comment
The only problem I've found is that the top bar is a bit bigger than Zukitwo (I think the date text is larger), the Alt+Tab doesn't show any highlighting (so I'm guessing as to what I'm about to Alt+Tab to) and the desktop previews are completely hidden when viewing the window list (I like to see my desktops).
The on/off switch is nice from a graphical point of view, but I don't think it is as clear and obvious from a usability point of view.
Still, IMO this is currently second only to a fixed Zukitwo theme. - Nov 23 2012

Is there anything that can be done about this, or have Mozilla made a change that screwed something up in an unfixable way?
Thanks. - Dec 12 2011

Is this based on Overglass (particularly for the images)? If so, that theme is CC BY-NC-SA, so this theme should be SA'd as well :) - Sep 19 2011

GTK3 Themes by lassekongo83 364 comments
No, I wasn't mixing this up, I just misread it. The menus are now pale, where as they were dark. I liked the dark ones. Now I need to find out how to get them back to dark :\ - Aug 04 2011

1) ChromeGtkFrame styling, so that the background area is the same as the menu bar colour (http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxGtkThemeIntegration). It just seems right, since the normal menu blends in to the title bar)
2) Dark buttons in the Chromium menu. I don't know if it is just a bug in Chromium, but the spanner menu has buttons in, but they're pale grey with white text on a dark menu.
3) A minor fix for Totem. On Fedora 15 I've got a menu bar that is dark, but the menus themselves are light.
Thanks :) This is a great theme. - May 31 2011
If they're recreations from scratch then you can put them under whatever license the original author distributed them under, but you may still have issues with Apple because of trademark and the like. Intellectual Property laws are odd and let people lay claim to all sorts of things, including appearances of things that don't have a single hour of work in common. - May 10 2011

Basically, the borderless style is nice. I like how the screenshots look. If I use it on my desktop then it is too bright, though.
My normal window background colour is #A0A0A0. Your theme doesn't use that colour - it hard codes the colour. It would be nice if it did use the window background colour, but I wouldn't want the background of a Nautilus icon list to be dark grey as well.
It may be that my idea is impossible, because you can't have a borderless theme *and* having have both dark and light colours without it looking odd.
Even if my ideas aren't possible, this is still a nice theme for those who like things a bit brighter. - Apr 14 2011

It'd be nice if we could alter the colours of the background (rather than just the menu bar), but I'm not sure how that'd work with the Nautilus windows, since I still prefer my text areas to be white, but I do like the borderless appearance. - Apr 12 2011

This set, however, looks nice and works well because it is working with the square shape instead of against it. I'll be using them to replace my Tango icons for a bit of simplicity and colour, rather than the classic OOo logo with an overlay. - Feb 08 2011

It'd be nice if this theme could be done in a way that works with different colourings so that I could have a gradient on my dark grey, but I suspect that's a limitation of the Chromium theme engine. - Jan 31 2011

This, however, is a nicely put together default Sonar theme with the standard green hues and some better tab differentiation than the default Chromium GTK theme. - Jan 31 2011

Metacity Themes by kill4killin 6 comments
The GTK theme was mentioned indirectly (you said you needed Murrine) but it wasn't in the list of what was in the packages, so I wasn't sure if one was included or not.
As for the .tar.gz, I hadn't realise that that was what the "Fedora source" file was. As you mentioned Fedora then I'd not downloaded it, but had assumed it was an SRPM or something.
As for the RPM, I've got root access, but the more important point was that this is only a theme and so I don't *need* root access. If you can ever avoid using root then you should, especially for unsigned files (nothing personal, but anyone can put anything in an RPM on here, and the RPM can have an install script that does anything). IMO then getting people unnecessarily used to installing RPMs from unknown sources is a bad thing and will only lead to a Windows-esque security issue where anyone will run anything. The Appearances app, on the other hand, takes a .tar.gz and unpacks it appropriately with (as far as I know) no script execution and so is much safer for the downloader.
Thanks. - Nov 24 2010

Metacity Themes by kill4killin 6 comments
1) What does the Metacity actually look like?
2) What does the icon theme look like?
3) What GTK theme does it work well with?
4) Can we have it in proper packages (e.g. .tar.gz) for installation through the Appearances app on a per-user basis instead of packaging it in an RPM that needs root/sudo access? - Nov 24 2010
Unless I missed something obvious...? - Nov 13 2010
