Here's mine,

e17 with the default B&W theme, since there the usual edj files aren't compatible with this version with the version now on ubuntu 11.10 repositories, I have to find out either new themes, or what happened to the old theme support.

Lol, they are almost all alike. Aside from a few gadgets here and there...

I found some working themes finally, but there aren't that many since the old edj became unsupported.

I love the look.. how??

Its just slightly modified gnome-shell. You need a distro that has gnome 3/gnome-shell (ubuntu 11.10 has it in its repositories, fedora 15/16 and opensuse 12.1 gnome have it default. Mint 12 will have it)

If you are using ubuntu you need to install gnome-shell from the repos, and log into it at the login screen (click the gear and choose the GNOME session).

Then install gnome-tweak-tool which will allow you to change the shell theme, GTK theme, and icon theme. and install these:

If you are on ubuntu you can use a ppa to install these and have them automatically updated:

For the theme:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/themes
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install zukitwo-theme-all[/CODE]

[CODE]sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiheum/equinox
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install faenza-icon-theme[/CODE]
