I cant seem to get the top bar on windows like the one in the pictures. The theme changes when i install it to /usr/share/themes, and select the theme from the user interface gui. But like I said nothing happens with the top bar on windows, I tried messing with the window manager, but the theme doesnt show up in there, any help guys, its like this for all themes.

Download and "Extract" the file to your Desktop, then drag the file> "Black PlasticV.2.tar.gz" into your theme Manager/Appearance.

You should install to /home/.themes
NOT your /usr/...

Ok, that doesn't work, cant drag and drop into user interface, or window manager. also there is no difference in putting the theme into /home/.themes, and /usr/share/themes, they don't work right in either.

hmm...
Make sure your distro is correctly installed and All-Systems are GO first...
NO One else seems to have the problems you are having.

on some fields, like url/web address in fire fox, and if im logging in myspace or somethin, I can't see what i'm typing unless I stop and highlight it with the mouse

Just change your Firefox settings.

DE-SELECT> "use system colors"

SELECT> Allow web pages yo chose their own colors...

fire fox was already set to that... I wouldn't have thought that would affect the url bar...

Thanx.

I'm using the Black white 2 gloss found here http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/black-white+2+Gloss?content=72621
and here
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/black-white+2+Neon?content=72620

I cant remember if I found the wall paper on Gnome-look or elsewhere though. As for the HD and "Computer" icons , I've included them in the download. theres also a text file with some hints/pointers on how to set all that up.

I much more liked your previous menu button that blue one so I mixed up the previous and the current theme:)
The current one is much more better then the previous one except this menu button:) So really good work (voted good)

Thanks!
Glad you like it. I just found that my First theme was too "bulky" so I narrowed it all down to have a slimmer fit especially on "low rez LCD" monitors.
I might repost a cleaned up version of the original with the changes.

PS. it might help some of you to reduce Font sizes from default down to 7 or 8 in

Gconfigeditor>
>apps>nautilus>preferences
and
>desktop>gnome>interface
