Compact-Colors is a compact version of my Clearlooks/Murrine/Nodoka-Colors themes. This theme is aimed for low-res devices (eeepc) and space enthusiasts.
It features a simple, fast and native interface with many color options. It's also designed with new linux users in mind, by providing simple, thorough instructions. A matching set of Wallpapers, GDM themes and Usplash screens can also be downloaded below.
There are four color variations (Orange, Blue, Green, Red) and TWO designs; light and dark. You can create even more color-schemes through GNOME's appearance preferences, using the included tango palette for color suggestions!
This pack includes 8 different themes rendered in three different GTK engines, for a total of 24 unique themes!
Important, must read or clowns will eat you:
- Murrine version is designed for the murrine engine 0.53.1
- Clearlooks version is designed for Ubuntu Hardy/Gnome 2.22
- Nodoka version will only work with nodoka engine 0.7+
- You MUST extract the downloaded file.
The resulting files contain the three different versions of the theme.
- Inside the gtkrc files there are extensive line-by-line instructions and tips for customizing most aspects of the theme!
- This theme uses gradient panel backgrounds by default. If you plan to use
Transparent/Custom panels, please disable my panels by editing either the gtkrc or panel.rc files like the included instructions tell you to.
- My X-Colors metacity borders are not selected by default, due to their
non-conservative nature. You can choose them in gnome's appearance preferences if you wish to use them.
- Some linux apps are not too friendly to dark themes yet. It's up to their
developers to improve this. Keep this in mind when using any dark theme.
- If you want root applications to be themed, you must type in a terminal:
sudo ln -s /home/{username}/.themes /root "{username}" should be replaced with your actual username.
