I just read that script, it's amazingly simple.

A loop that checks what the current hour is, an if case that copies a file over the current theme file depending on what hour it is, a command to "update" the current theme and a 1 hour sleep command at the end of the loop.

Brilliant. I wanna make one too now!

Forgot to ask -

Do you think you can do this with a gtk2.x
theme?

I am unfortunately a KDE user, but when I saw of this idea on Ubuntu Geek I couldn't help but find it interesting. Dynamic themes are pretty much unexplored territory, so any effort on that field deserves praise!
