[moglenstar]

[okt]

It does look nice :)

Does anyone know what icons are being used here?

Any port for XP?

Heys, this looks great! Maybe Schmoove can do this? Marcel??

[SamNeeds]

Thats pretty cool, but i can't say i'll make use of this package. Great work!

[ooomph]

i appreciated linux skins for the lack of glossines ... times are changing.

first clearlooks was better, imho.

Yeah Schmoove's Clearlooks port is great!

He could really do this one justice if he takes it up :yes:

[kevcart3]

I've been messin around with Schmoove's original clearlooks port, and TBH, it would be very easy to change his port over to the new "cairo" look.

Check out my progress :p

Yes, it would be awesome to see Schmoove port this over :D

great, im glad somebody is beggining to port it over, even if it isnt schmoove!

make the caption buttons wider! :laugh:

after googling around for more screens of clearlooks 2.0 , i wish we could have animated loading bars on msstyles :(

[kevcart3]

Yeah, I wish you could too :(. I just used Schmoove's msstyle to recolor it a little bit, it was actually quite easy. This is the first time I have ever messed with a visual style, so I am a n00b :p

[Gaurav Patel]

Awesome progress kevcart3. Keep it up.

Oh and Moglenstar... that is one fine looking theme ;)

[kevcart3]

If I could get permission from Schmoove to post this (because it was originally HIS port), I would try to go ahead and finish it up and post it :D

Sweet, hope he says yes(99% he will say yes)

From the readme file for his Clearlooks port:

"This theme is released under the GPL license so feel free to do with it whatever you like."

Not that it wouldn't be nice to have his blessing and all... but you should be clean.

[kevcart3]

Cool, I didn't See the readme file (duh :s)

[Daask]

I can handle conversion of the icons and make a complete set for iconpackager, i just need a tiny application that can batch covert SVG to PNG !

And i promise you a complete iconpackager release of tango's icons !

Anything to perfect that gorgeous look for windows !

[kevcart3]

Freakin Sweet (Y) I would love to have the Tango Icons with this theme, good luck with that :D

Someone please link me to a batch converter from SVG to PNG, can't do that manualy on photoshop, it'll take alot of time !

[vertigosity]

If Ksaad finds an application to quickly batch-convert the icons, I'll make a shell patcher of 'em too if anyone's interested. My shell patchers aren't too popular around these parts... but they work. I hadn't bothered doing one for Tango yet since it'd pretty much be for myself alone, and I've been happy with just straight Gnoming.

How will this work ?, i mean... an installer ?

That means you only need the .ICO files, but assigning them will take some time. You know what i mean ?

We'll team up and make many editions of the same thing ! Same thing, Different flavours. Just like Linux :D

[Simon Veteran]

Where is this theme for Linux? I couldn't find it.

[Daask]

http://www.stellingwerff.com/?p=16 or here http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=32659

[kevcart3]

^ Right now, you pretty much just have to compile it from source, because it is a remake of the WHOLE clearlooks engine (Y).

They have some compiled Ubuntu packages here:

edit: I was referring to the GTK part of the theme, ksaad has pointed out the metacity part :D

[Daask]

Can't wait for the style, also... i've crawled for a converter to those icons, but nothing seems positive !

And btw, kevcart3. You're welcome. how's your progress going ?
