Description:

This is "Dusk" a Linux/gnome desktop theme which runs on vanilla murrine engine so far It's pretty quick (about 2.60-3.00 average on gtk perf) completely legible, error free and aesthetically pleasing to me. Everything like global menu, elementary the panel etc all compatible. All colors are changeable via appearance preferences. I added some colors to the gtkrc file - gtk color pallet specifically for the menubar and toolbar. Which if you wish to change will require changing the rgb hex color codes manually in a text editor.

Note! built for use with Nautilus Elementary.

Any questions - Happy to help.

I hope you enjoy using this theme.

Well the figures may not be universally reliable but it gives you some clue how it's performing.

I never heard of gtkperf so I tried it on my own theme. I don't seem to see much difference between Dusk, Function & Lambda (my themes) and Ambiance. Perhaps my hardware is the factor?

I heard - read about it over on the gnome org theming tutorial stuff and tried it out I think it probably does vary depending on hardware but it's the only way I know of of measuring it...

Ps Congrats on your superb themes technically great... :)

Thanks Mike I just run the test during the build and a few times after completion.... It's also being run virtually as I have not yet loaded it on my old box. The readings vary but it's definitely nice and snappy - responsive for me anyway.
