1. I have no idea why nautilus shows like that
2. Decrease the titlebar font size, th white line will be gone.. :)
3. I'm trying to solve that problem..

thank u for pointing those out.. :)

A dark version of this theme is all I'd ever need.

lovely work!

i can make a dark version but only for gtk3. I dont know anything about gtk2 themeing.. so ur gtk2 apps will look inconsistent..

Congratulation man you did the best theme ever for me!

It work like a charm on fedora 15 x86_64

Thanks X 10000 !!!

I congratulate you on making this theme for GTK3. Frankly, there aren't many to choose from and this is certainly one that is greatly needed.

However, the only problem I have with it currently is that text in some application windows like gEdit, gnome-terminal, and the system configuration menu have white text on the whitish background. This makes it virtually impossible to read these menus. Also a funny thing is that if I run them in root, the text is no longer white and fits in perfectly.

Other than that, if you can get that fixed, then it will be perfect!

Still no good for me :(. I will provide you a screenshot of what I get:

what distribution are u using, and do you have the latest updates installed?? unfortunately i dont have these issues, n im using it on parabola gnu/linux (fork of arch). I'll try it out in fedora too though.. i'll go through the code again in case i've left something..:)

alexanderjbader

I'm on Arch Linux x86_64 with the latest packages from the repositories. I do have the gnome-shell-extensions package from the GIT. Other than that, I don't think I can give you any extra information about my system.

I wouldn't necessarily bother with trying it on Fedora, but it might be able to reproduce the results I am getting.

grvrulz
9 years ago

I'm using it on parabola x64(thats the same as arch), and i dont have the problem. I also had fedora on another partition, n the theme works there too. Though i've made some changes that'll hopefully solve the problem, i'll release an update today. :)

grvrulz

Plz redownload and see. I've updated the theme.

The problem of white text on white background still persists, at least in my Fedora 15 :(
