Description: This theme is based on the following themes: - Mac4Lin Aqua - iMetal - Leopardish - Macbuntu - iMetal Leopard
I did a complete overhaul of the Mac4Lin Aqua theme, added some parts of the other mentioned themes and created some on my own.
I also added a slimmed down icon theme to fit the now dark panels, see below for instructions.
Installation
Theme:
- place the themes' directory into "/usr/share/themes" or "~/.themes" - if you want to use your own panel background or if you have items at your panels which don't follow the panel-bg, outcomment the "bq_pixmap" lines in "gtk-2.0/panel.rc" and choose the panel-bg via the properties dialogs of your panels
Icons (to fit the dark panels):
- place the icon themes' directory into "/usr/share/icons" or "~/.icons" - open the text editor - browse to the icon themes' directory - open the file "index.theme" - replace the first entry in the line of "Inherits=" with the name of your favorite icon themes' directory ("Snow sabre" is mine) - save it
Fix for some Thunderbird buttons:
- place the included userChrome.css into the "chrome" directory of your Thunderbird profile or add its content to yoursLast changelog:
