Description:

Another mod of the popular Dust theme. I recolored the controls and titlebar to make them look blue/grey ish and also threw in a few more stuff:
my CCSM profile, the HumanAzul2 Icon theme, and a couple of fonts ( Segoe ) to make the general look and feel nicer.

Anyhow, here is my font setup:
Application font > Segoe > 9
Document font > Century Schoolbook Roman L > 9
Desktop font > Segoe Semibold > 8.5
Window title font > Segoe Semibold > 9
Fixed width font > Monospace > 8
>>'Best Contrast' selected. (Subpixel smoothing works well also, but it makes all the other fonts look a bit wonky. You can fine tune all this stuff by clicking the 'Details...' button, but all of that stuff is mostly just personal preference or just what looks best. )

You need the 'lzma' package in the Ubuntu repos to extract the .lzma file download. If you find that you can't extract it, pop open a terminal and type:
'sudo apt-get install lzma'
then try again.

Enjoy. (c:

 Openoffice.org

It looks better than the original dust imho, but there is a serious usability problem with OpenOffice.org which looks ugly with this theme.

The original dust developers solved this problem by keeping light toolbars in OpenOffice.org. Please change this because your theme is amazing and I'm really looking forward to use it if you fix that probem

Thanks

Hmm..
Making the toolbars lighter might change the look and feel of this theme. Maybe I could make a slightly customized oo.o icon theme and repackage everything into an automagical tarbomb?

Either way, I'll try them both and see how they work out!

 black toolbar

Try for a moment the latest dust theme with openoffice.org; you'll notice that the workaround they used is an acceptable compromise. I know this is not optimal for a dark theme but unfortunately black toolbars in Openoffice.org are ugly also because of the widgets. You can easily notice white squares around the text areas and that makes them look really horrible.

Not to mention toolbars in inkscape and the ugly white separators in the right-click submenus.
