woow one of the best themes I've ever seen

Just a couple of suggestions

Silent Night-Dark
-on several sites textboxes font are black like the background of textboxes, difficult to read (Firefox)

-could you please make panel-bg bigger, like 30 px, just in case to want our gnome-panel bigger

thanks and keep up your good effort

Yeah,internet doesn't like dark themes,it could be fixed with userContent.css. You can easily make bigger panel-bg pixmap in gimp.

already done it, but if you could do this for all I won't have to do that every time you update your theme for us ;)

i m usually against pixmap (i do not know how to do) but your is really well done

Thanks,I will fix OpenOffice.Reason why I didn't do that till now,well,I was thinking to drop support for this theme,because there is newer version.

Thanks for the great themes, nale12!

How do you remove the Ubuntu logo from the main menu? Here's a screenshot of the problem:

I did. For some reason, the "Show Icons In Menus" checkbox in Gnome 2.28.1 doesn't affect the main menu anymore. See:

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1295357

Has anyone found a workaround?

nale12

Yep,I know for that,pity,I was thinking you are running some earlier version of gnome.

Hi!

I love this theme and I would like to put it in my desktop but it doesn't show like it should :(
I give you an image and you'll see...

I don't know what happens...

Thanks for this theme and for the help!!!

Nevermind. I've upgraded it to GTK 2.18.3 and now it's ok.

Great theme!!!

I think you haven't installed pixbuf engine

simongaiteiro

I think I had it before upgrading GTK+. But now it looks fine.

By the way, do you know how to fix Firefox? It doesn't look good... Backgrounds are totaly black (in toolbars, bookmarks, tabs).

nale12

I am working on it.

Hi! Great theme!

Unfortunately (or fortunately), I've found a bug. When I use Silent Night, and I launch any of the applications from Openoffice, it (Openoffice) has no icons. Where there should be icons there are only words; e.g. it says "open file" in words where there should be an "open file" icon.

The system I'm using is Mandriva One 2010 rc2 Gnome edition. Since it's not final yet, it could be a Mandriva bug, or an Openoffice one, but it only happens with this theme, not with others.

Thank you for your excelent work, anyways.

I have no problems with archlinux,but it is openoffice bug with dark themes.Try google.

I have a problem in Firefox, buttons are black... on black text. Unusable

you must delete any css file in ~/.mozilla/firefox/default/chrome folder

One little but enoying thing :
List widget in netbeans has both black foreground and background.
This make the theme difficult to use for netbeans users.

Regards.
