There are always rumours about Google launching their own OS based on Linux. Here is my take on what it might look like.
I've finished this theme now, so it's time for its full release.
Thanks for all the positive feedback - A matching icon theme is coming soon!
Recommended GTK theme is Glossy with the following colours:
Selected items background - #C3D9FF
Selected items text - #9D9D9D
All other backgrounds - #ffffff
All other text - #000000

All your themes are great and I really hope you keep creating such remarkable stuff. Excellent!
Will you ever do some more icon themes?

Sorry for the delay in replying.
I'm sure that if you keep experimenting you will get a version that fits your needs. That's the thing with themes, you have to keep playing around with them until you get it just right.
I do hope to make some more icon themes, but they take a lot of time to make - not as easy as the emerald and metacity themes. They are difficult to keep the file size down too as they contain so many images. The googol icons will basically be a recoloured version of the ice icons, but at the moment I can't find a quick way of recolouring them without having to do each file individually! I'm sure there must be a quick way. Anyway, I will try to get something done as soon as possible.
Thanks for the comments!

To make the white parts totally transparent, why not try editing it? Go to System > Emerald Theme Manager, select the googol theme, then click on the edit themes button. Select the 'Theme Engine' tab, then select vruner. The first three options (left blend, middle blend and right blend) then just need changing to transparent by sliding the opacity slider down to zero.
You could then release this on Gnome-look as a variant theme!
Hope that helps - let me know how you get on!

I want to see the final result and decide for myself whether I actually want to use this theme!

For my personal use I made the shadow without an offset and a fraction darker and bigger.
I've used sea modded forever and never found anything that could beat it. Until now. I love this theme

If you could send me a copy of your modded version that would be great as your ideas might look better and (with your permission) could be integrated into the main theme.
cheers,

Although I use the theme I uploaded onto this website, I really like yours and would consider trying it.
It's simple, but it's simplicity is stylish. Why the hell hasn't someone come up with this before? :D
