Yeah! Go, dejan, go!

Hi theme lovers,

Trouble mix and matching between gtk and jwm theme because you have to openm 2 apps? Well, look no more, click on my signature, desktop manager, you'll like it. Inpits are welcome. Thx

Hey ppl, since I couldn't get some themes to work on dpup I took some buttons from Slickness Black theme and made a small puppy-compatible GTK theme, download from attachment. If you want to make filenames in ROX readable go to rox options -> Colours tab -< uncheck color files based on filetype or adjust colors as you wish. If someone wants to make some modifications feel free to post modified package.

Hi Dejan!

Thanks for this truly awesome "Basic-Black" gtk theme! It really rocks! I've used this in both my Dpup/Upup and I just love the way this looks as opposed to the much "heavier look" of the Slickness Black themes. Not only that but I've found that this theme is far more lite-weight when compared to those of the Slickness Black family ( due to the fact that it's not calling up all those heavy-weight .png files to make the GUI, etc. ).

A real winner IMHO Dejan. Ought to be posted at Gnome-Look.org for the entire world to enjoy!

Thanks so much for this once again - and while I'm at it? - thanks likewise for that fabulous website of yours! I can end up getting lost there for hours!

Amicalement/Cheers!

Thanks you very much Eyes-Only, glad you like it.
Sure it's lightweight and compatible with puppy, it's just one gtkrc conf file and four small graphics for buttons (two of them are only taken from slickness black and scaled to 20x20 to match trio's gtk theme maker template.

So I did

We'll see how this works for gnome users

Hey! Way to go Dejan and Congrats!! That's pretty awesome to see that you posted it on the 11th - today's the 12th - and already there have been 40 downloads with a 54% approval rating!

Far out my fellow Puppian friend!! This is really great, plus I was really happy to see where you'd given "Our Favourite Distro" a little plug in your description/story when describing the theme.

That's a truly great place to go when wanting to change the GTK2 looks of one's desktop. I only wished I had more time to hang out there...

Good luck to you Dejan! Bonne Chance Mon Aminche!

That was part of the plan

I think rating starts from 50% when you upload, not sure by how it increase but yes, looks good for only one day up

Went crazy on GTK themes for awhile:

Nice, you might need additional gtk engines for some themes to fully apply
http://puppy.b0x.me/software/squeeze/gtk-engines/

Yeah, but even without them, they still mostly look alright. That's why I picked them, because I didn't really want to install Murrine and the like whenever I wanted a nice GTK theme (but I do like all those engines )

I found this nice theme on the web which I modified slightly to make it more usable.

Here's a nice GTK theme from Bodhi, patched to remove the Clearlooks dependency and without the Metacity theme.

Screeny here or in the "my puppy blah blah" thread, see my latest desky

LOOKS COOL

I hope this is the right spot?
Always like ThinIce themes

Here some Hacked gtk2-Thinice themes:
Dark_ice
darkroom
ICE_Coffee
new_ice
you will need the gtk-thinice-engine-2.0.2-i486-1.pet too.

I've experimented with some GTK themes. DarkMint is one I took from gnome-look, the others are based on the cool Stardust theme by Zigbert.

EDIT

I tested both DarkMint and DarkCold4 (next post) on Saluki, they work for XFCE too, and give Saluki a stunning appearance.

DarkMint on Saluki
DarkCold4 on Saluki

By the way, the gnome-look user that posted the DarkMint GTK theme is originalseed, it seems he's created it so you may want to watch later for more. He made a blue version called DarkCold4 and it worked for me on Wary 5.3, too. Well, I'm not sure whether the themes work under JWM but certainly they work under Openbox. I'm posting a screenshot and a PET here.
