Description:

Try to make a clear and compact theme, needs murrine, pixmap and aurora gtk engine.

the zip file contain the panels backgrounds, backgrounds source and the GTK theme.

------------------------------------------

I installed the nautilus elementary version, so I themed the nautilus to fit with the new look of the file manager, if you have installed the elementary nautilus and want to try the look in the screenshot, follow the next steps:

1.- go to ~/.themes/cafelate/gtk-2.0/
2.- open the gtkrc file
3.- comment the line 943 (add the # symbol at the line begin)
4.- uncomment the line 944
5.- restart the theme


pd.-sorry for the bad english
pd2.- please, let me know how it looks on the nautilus's normal version, i couldn't test on it

Great changes!

However, I tried to use the nautilus modification, as follows:

1.- go to ~/.themes/cafelate/gtk-2.0/
2.- open the gtkrc file
3.- comment the line 943 (add the # symbol at the line begin)
4.- uncomment the line 944
5.- restart the theme

line 943 is empty, and I commented it, then uncommented line 944. As a result the theme stopped working (like the ugly root theme sometimes). Any suggestion on how to solve it?

Thanks.

yeah, I saw the Dan rabbit's mockup... I hope that he will find a better way to get the diagonal breadcrumb... meanwhile I think this is a good aproximation.

mmm, the panel text color is controlled by the tooltip text color, you can open: appearance>customize>color>tooltip text.

but in appearance you can choose directly the cafelate theme that comes with the correct color scheme

Sinceramente el tema gtk en si no me gustó mucho, quiza por las barras de desplazamiento en amarillo. Pero me enamore del metacity! Se ve muy "ubuntu", es más, debería estar incluido en los que trae por defecto!
