Description:

Concept
This time I wanted to create a darker theme with a pixmap bg. Further all control-elements (buttons, scrollbars... etc) should be transparent.
To create this overlay effect and getting it displayed correctly wasn't as easy as I thought it would be and this may cause problems. This makes the theme pretty experimental as well... :)

Contents
+ 2xgtk
+ 2xmetacity
+ xfwm4
+ 2xemerald
+ gdm
+ userContent.css (Firefox3)
+ NowPlaying screenlet theme

GDM
If you have a widescreen monitor, please rename the file "bg-wide.png" to "bg.png" in the gdm-theme directory.

Metacity
Because metacity resizes the titlebar if the title font is too big, I recommend to use the font "snap" as window title font. With other fonts try sizes around 7 and 8.

Note
To enjoy the theme in all it's sexyness be sure to copy the userContent.css to your firefox profile.
If you find any bugs please let me know (if you have a minute a screenhot would be much appreciated).
The pattern for the bg is from theinspirationgallery.com (modified of course).

Screenshot
The wallpaper (also used as bg for the gdm-theme) is from mandolux.com (slightly modified). Thx again Mando for letting me use it!

 won't install

okay... i like the look of the theme but I can't install. I tried installing it manually by extracting and copy/paste it to the usr/share/themes directory but an error is showing:
Error while copying.
The folder "Mira" cannot be copied because you do not have permissions to create it in the destination.

I am an admin... why it won't copy??

Well, as root you should have write permission if the root partition isn't mounted read only (which is probably not the case).

Please try it again like this (sudo only as user):
sudo tar -xvf Mira.tar --directory=/usr/share/themes

You can extract the theme to ~/.themes (".themes" in your homefolder) as well.

Hey, your theme really rocks, however, it's too dark.

What font do you use for the theme? I can't find it, so I've used the standard font.

Thanks! The font is called "snap". You can find it in the artwiz font pack (http://artwizaleczapka.sourceforge.net).

Hi,

The picture you used on your title bars, do you have this in wallpaper? Feel like using it as a wallpaper for my terminals.

Thanks.

Do you mean the bg image?
You can find that one in the theme: Mira/gtk-2.0/Shadows/window-bg.png

It is tileable.
