A murrine theme that uses soft gray and steel-blue colours.
Comes in three versions: Bright Blue (1st picture), Soft Blue (2nd picture), and Bright Green (3rd picture).
Emerald decoration is included in the archive -- INSTALL MANUALLY!
Tested on murrine 0.53.1 (Ubuntu Gutsy, and later).
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
== NOTES ==
* If you want the theme to match the emerald/metacity decorations of Mac4Lin, simply replace the background colour with "#d1d1d1".
== CREDITS ==

But I'll be on the look at for whatever you have coming.
if I could make a request, I'd like a theme with rounded scrollbars (nodoka maybe?) matte widgets, and low saturation. But make it real sexy. Would you be up to the challenge?

I just have two question:
Could you consider using a less intense baby blue for the scrollbars? I think they kinda don't feed the rest of the look and feel of this theme.
Also, could you maybe create a green version of this theme? :D Like, leave the grey as it is, just change the blue to green?
Cheers for your work!

1) I agree with you about the scrollbars; I think the murrine ones in general are pretty dingy. To remove the "baby blue" you can comment out line 69 in the gtkrc to get a white scrollbar. Assuming you don't like this solution, which makes the scrollbar hard to see, you can try replacing the colour on line 69 with something other than the tooltip (baby blue), like the selected colour (dark blue) or a value between the two.
2) As for a green variation... well, you're being a little lazy aren't you? :p Go to GNOME Apperance Preferences and use "#86A954" for selected items and "#BFFF66" for tooltips. I think these are alright, but if you find better values, feel free to post them here. (They are intended to be equivalent to the Bright version.)

Alright, I will try what you suggest for the scrollbar.
As for the color - I am not actually using the Gnome DE, so I don't have that color chooser (and I just can't find my way around the theme files...).
But yeah, I will be looking into that. :D
Anyways, good job!

I will give it a try. Once again I have to say that the color used for the scrollbars and the comboboxes is too bright.
The baby blue in the initial release was slightly misplaced to my mind, but that radioactive green is a bit aggressive... :D (If you look at the preview and try not to focus anything particular, your view gets drawn towards the bright green).
I will try a few colors and then tell you if I find a color that fits better.

I have a thing with green in themes: I think that pale green looks really bland, hence the radioactive colour I chose.
Even without the GNOME interface fiddling with the colors is simple enough: open the gtkrc and have a look at the gtk_color_scheme line on line 8. Of interest are the "selected_bg_color" (menus, etc) and the "tooltip_bg_color" (prelights). The toolbars, as I mentioned in a previous post, are colored separately.

When you watch your screenshots with Firefox, it stores screenshots in it's cache. So when you upload new screenshot that have the same name as the one already on server (and also in the Firefox cache) and try to review it then Firefox won't download newer uploaded images from server because it already has them in it's cache.
Solution:
Just upload your new screenshots and then force Firefox to reload page from server (not from cache):
> Shift+Left-mouse-click on reload button (force reload) or,
> Ctrl+F5 (force reload) or,
> Ctrl+Shift+R (force reload)
Or update your new screenshots, clear Firefox cache and reload the page.
