simple.. theres a theme manager program in a menu somewhere. U just have to find it.

After u find that prog, there is a "install new themes" button where u click on the directory of where you downloaded the file.

YOu don't even need to unzip or anything.. You just click on the .tar file (was it a .tar file?) and it installs automatically.

I wish everything in linux was as easy as that.

(Sorry, I recently switched back to SUSE from ubuntu, as I'm still too noob/windows-ish to use it, so I can't give you any precise details as to which menus to go through and stuff)

Nobodies too noob to run Ubuntu or some of the other more user friendly distros! Give it a go! The installation process is even easier than Windows!

#2

If you're using Gnome simply click "Applications > Desktop Preferences > Themes" then click "install theme" and browse to the theme file :)

An excelent theme, the menu needs a border though :(

The app you need is

gdesklets

it allows all sorts of eye candy stuff. The desklet for the doc bar is

StartBar

Morchy!

Thank to your encouragement, I just installed Ubuntu!!!!

It was a long journey,,,, I burned the CD too fast at first so it became invalid... :pinch:

Anyway, now I'm on Ununtu Firefox writing this.

[theh0g]

Great theme but I also have a problem in GAIM, icons are too big...bug?

[Julius Caro]

To install it :p

$ tar jxvf Milk-2.1.tar.bz2
$ mv Milk-2.1/ ~/.themes

Now you can choose it in the theme selector.

BTW don't forget to read the readme :p

:blink: wow!

does anyone have a cigarette? :blush:

[g-n-t]

nice, BTW, if you use KDE, you can use baghira.

[jingarelho]

looks very nice indeed :D

[rum beverage]

just wondering if anyone has figured out anything on the large gaim icons.

[xFrappe051x]

Same with above ^^, any info on the large Gaim icons?

[GaMMa]

Great theme, looks a lot better than the 2.0 release, especially the metacity borders.. The only issue I'm having is with tabs. gedit uses the little close icon where the right side of the icon gets cut off. Also tabs in epiphany seem to "strech" moving the whole window down when it loads a tab and shows the foot icon. When it's done loading it shifts back..

In the gtkrc file there's a line:

gtk-icon-sizes = "panel-menu=24,24:gtk-menu=24,24:panel=24,24"

Change the gtk-menu size and it should fix your problems..

Is it just me or did you just reply to your own post but talking as if it was a different person? :unsure: I must be really tired... :sleep:

[GaMMa]

Haha I was half awake when I posted that, funny stuff :D. Atleast I'm helpful to myself :D. I meant to reply to someone way earlier in the thread, but I must have saw this one first and posted the solution... :p

[DJ Trauma]

Thx ! This is the best GNOME theme I've ever seen! :woot:
