Themes for Carolina
Posted: Mon 15 Apr 2013, 01:50
Carolina for sometime as had Xfce Theme Manager, with this it is possible save custom themes settings.
It isn't all that difficult to package your own themes to share with other Carolina users, as you can see in this example,
it does take a little getting use to creating these, but by extracting the pet package you will see how it's constructed.
This is something I put together as a test, the Ambiance-Orange-Xfce-GTK-2.0-XFWM4 is one I edited so as to only contains gtk-2.0 and xfwm4 styles directories.
also win8 mouse cursors and XFaenza icons.
Prior to installing this theme it would be wise to create a custom theme of your existing layout, in Xfce Theme Manager select "Custom Theme" and save it.
Get it here Ambiance-Carolina-1.0.pet
When installed go to Menu > Control Panel > Desktop > Xfce-Theme-Manager, under themes tab select Ambiance-Carolina-1.0.
The theme should now automatically change, post here if you have any problems with it, Lina lite user will need to install the xfce theme manager from the repo.though not shown, it is also possible to add a custom font if you wish, that would be located in /root/.fonts
