Description:

This theme was an attempt to allow everyone to pick a wide variety of colors and window borders. You can change the sidebar colors to any color you prefer, or if you prefer another window border, you can change the menubar color to make it blend together. This is my first time doing something like this, so there may be a lot of problems - Let me know. Thanks so much to everyone for help, feedback, comments, messages, voting, and fannage(?). Also, negative/critical feedback is just as (and sometimes more) important as any other. I don't know what down votes mean without it! Hope everyone enjoys. Thanks again!

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


How to Use


++ Colors ++

Several Gtk desktops have an Appearance Manager (see below), usually under the System menu, that allow you to customize a themes colors. If not, try this:

1. Open the file /home/yournamehere/.themes/Victory/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
2. Open the file /home/yournamehere/.themes/Victory/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
3. Open the file /home/yournamehere/.themes/Victory/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

Each of these files contain the color settings in the top of the files. The important parts are:

selected_fg_color
selected_bg_color

tooltip_fg_color
tooltip_bg_color

Here's what each one of those changes:

selected_fg_color = Sidebar Text Color
selected_bg_color = Sidebar Background Color

tooltip_fg_color = File Menu Text Color
tooltip_bg_color = File Menu Background Color

Just change the #xxxxxx to a color you like! Save, and log out and back in to see the changes!





++ Options ++

This theme offers options for light panels, light menus, Nautilus elementary, the ability to try old Victory styles, and more.

At the bottom of the gtkrc or gtk.css file (mentioned in Steps 1 and 2 of the color section), you will find a section called Options. Comment or Uncomment lines (add or remove a # at the beginning of the line or the /* at the beginning and */ at the end) to try different options. After making changes, save the file. You will have to change to another theme for a moment. Go back to the Victory theme, and your changes should appear.



++ Installing ++

To install, extract the downloaded tar.gz. Put the folders (Victory, Victory for Top Panels) in your themes directory. Then open your desktops Appearance Manager to select the theme.

Log out and back in to make sure all changes take effect (especially in Gnome 3)

If you would like root apps (Synaptic/Package Manager/GParted) to use your theme, try the following. Step 2 may give an error that there was no such folder. If so, ignore it and move on to Step 4.

1.) Open terminal and type:
2.) sudo mv /root/.themes /root/.themesbackup
3.) Hit enter, then type:
4.) sudo ln -s ~/.themes /root
5.) Hit enter

2012.03.16b - Repackaged and reuploaded. Was having a problem with compression, causing the files for Cinnamon, Gnome-Shell, and a lot of other updates not to work. If you had any problems using this update, delete it, try it again, and let me know if anyone else is still having problems. Sorry!

2012.03.16 | c
Updated again on 2012-05-13.
This theme was created using Gtk3.2. They made some theme changes in Gtk3.4, so it doesn't look as intended. This update is a temporary fix for the biggest problem in Gtk3.4 - white text. Hopefully I can update the theme in the next month or so to address the rest of the problems.


Anyway, let me know what's good or bad, or if any apps aren't theming right or anything. Thanks again everyone... I really appreciate all the feedback and comments!

I like them the background color too... unfortunately it's a bug/feature/limitation of the Murrine Engine. If I'm mistaken, someone can let me know... but I couldn't find a way to change many treeview elements.

So you'll notice in treeviews where there are progressbars, checkboxes, radio buttons, and many times expander triangles... they look different than the rest of the theme.

I think Murrine colors all checkboxes by default... I'm not a big fan of that. So the ones that are the background color are the ones I've changed. And Compiz Settings Manager gave me a lot of problems, along with gnome-control-center and application browser... they don't apply themes correctly. So you may even notice that the checkboxes in those are different than the checkboxes anywhere else (like in the run dialogue).

Anyway, sorry about that. Maybe I'm just not sure how to do it, so if someone knows let me know - but I don't think it's currently possible. You could bring it up on the Murrine Site as a feature request if you want.

 Bug

Hey, thanks! Glad you like it.

Luckily that can be fixed pretty easily. It's because the theme doesn't install as root. You can do it in nautilus by running gksu nautilus and making a link to your /home/yourname/.themes folder, and putting it in the /root folder. Or just do it in the terminal:

1.) Open terminal and type:
2.) sudo mv /root/.themes /root/.themesold
3.) Hit enter, then type:
4.) sudo ln -s ~/.themes /root
5.) Hit enter

Step 2 may give an error if the /root directory doesn't have a .themes folder. Just ignore it and move on to Step 4.

-----------

Anyway, let me know if that works.

I'll take a look at that for the next time. It's probably an error on my part. If there is anything you notice you're doing when it happens, let me know.

Anyway, thanks for that!

Thanks, glad you like it. I think I'm kind of done with major changes on this theme... just some updates if apps need fixes. But a while back I was playing with a dark panel (Check the Small Victory Gtk Theme). Since I'm not really modifying the theme anymore, maybe I'll go back and play with the dark panel over this next month.

Not sure if you still use the Victory theme, or are interested, but I just added a dark panel with dark menus. If you still have any interest, let me know what you think.
