Google Earth icons need to be renamed to google-earth (present icons in Faenza googleearth) - Apr 30 2011

Yes I realized we need to change all of them manually. Then I scanned the other apps again. In addition to my first comment, here my feedbacks:

*libreoffice(or ooo) starter icon (it's easy, just changing color of one of them ),

*linker gnomebaker to burner icon,

*netbeans icon color look different.

This type of color would be nicer.

*I think older chrome icons better.

*inkscape and gimp icons look similiar at first glance. You can use more black in inkscape.

That all I had.

Guake icon isn't working except system tray. It's still using the icon under pixmaps/guake.

And also gshutdown, screenlets and gwget are ostensibly missing for me. On the other hand it's great work. - Mar 18 2011

If you choose smooth in tabs, horizonal tabs are connected with their windows when you choose them but vertical tabs aren't connected(red ones)

What's wrong with vlc player its classic vlc icon - Mar 28 2011

sorry about that :D - Mar 25 2011

lol. I did't take your modification, I've already done that thing, cause even a child can do that. See below. And I can't believe how childish you are like you create world. I won't get into any discussion with you. Take it its all yours. - Mar 25 2011

Ok. I calling everybody not downloading any modified theme anymore. Just make an affort to change it. Here what we need to do,

1-) go to /usr/share/themes folder. This is the default folder that all system themes exist in.

2-) Open index.theme(seem as Ambiance) file with su privilege. It's the key file that Appearance recognizes your theme. You will see the following lines in the Ambiance Theme:

-GtkTheme=Ambiance
-MetacityTheme=Ambiance
-IconTheme=ubuntu-mono-dark
-CursorTheme=DMZ-White
-ButtonLayout=close,minimize,maximize:

-GtkTheme stands for buttons, scroll bars etc.
-MetacityTheme stands for window borders which we will edit this.
-Icon and Cursor, you know what it means.
-And the last line Button layout!. ":" stands for separation between right and left sides. You can change the order the way you want. However if you delete this line, ButtonLayout attribute locates "menu:minimize,maximize,close" by default!

3-) Now it's time to make icons visible. We will change window border, so we will edit "metacity-1/metacity-theme-1.xml" with su privilege again.
Find the <draw_ops name="menu_focused_normal">
<draw_ops name="menu_focused_prelight">
<draw_ops name="menu_unfocused_normal">
<draw_ops name="menu_unfocused_prelight"> tags in the file.

If you look at carefully, these tags render "menu.png" and "menu_prelight.png" with image tag. So we will change these image tags with icon tag for display icons. All you need to do is changing "<image....../>" line of these for tags to "<icon x="0" y="2" width="mini_icon_width" height="mini_icon_height"/>" (without quotes). Save it and it's done. You need to reselect the theme from Appearance for applying the changes.

Now you can modify every metacity theme with these steps.

Now i don't care anybody vote up/down or download or the theme. And also I don't expect any credit, link or whatever JUST FOR DELETING ONE LINE. If there is someone to credit, they are the theme authors.

with all respect - Mar 24 2011

First of all I stated that I've just edited the Ambiance Theme and I didn't used any line of the code of the link that you gave. And if you look at the metacity file of Ambiance, you can see "Kenneth Wimer, James Schriver, Andrea Cimitan" as authors. I can't see yours. So I can't see any reason to credit you. Did you credit other modified ambiance themes? - Mar 24 2011

I opened svg's with inkscape, delete all and saved but its size was still 2.3MB. Then I opened empty file, copy every layer one by one, saved it.

It decrease to 25kB from 2.3MB. Total archieve decreased from 1.4MB to 95kB. Use this source

Original Faenza office(ooo) .svg file about 30kB. But why are the libreoffice svg file are about 2.3MB? - Mar 19 2011

I did the restore thing for the theme and also restore .gconf folder manually from .elegant...backup again, but I didn't know I had to do separately for all of them. I think you need to add an option that restore or uninstall or whatever all of them.

Anyway I figured out it with gdm2setup. For whom in my situation link is here.

when i removed elegant from ppa(ubuntu) it messed up default gdm theme. I reinstalled gdm from synaptic but nothing changed. It still look old fashion - Mar 17 2011

Yes there is. monthscrappe is wrong, metacity can do that. I made some research and at the end made it. Here is the link
