imetalMod

This is a modification of SkiesOfAzel's great theme imetal. I changed the button and made it a little bit gray.

All credits go to SkiesOfAzel.

Also thanks to Cristian Grada for his immx theme. I borrowed some idea from that too.

INSTRUCTION:

There are two gtk themes and four metacity themes in the package.I recommend to use black and white icon theme with imetal mod gray and use a mac like icon theme with imetal mod color as I did in the screen shot.

Please unzip(unzip ***.zip) the download file before installation. Then extact the tar.gz file(tar xfvz imetal\ mod.tar.gz), then copy the theme folder to /home/yourname/.theme/. Or you can use Appearance Preferences(System-Preference-Appearance) to install the theme.


Recommend to use iFoxMetal or Foxdie theme for firefox with Hide Menubar plugin.


I recommend to turn OFF the windows border transparency in compiz fusion. To do it, go to the gnome configuration editor(Sytstem Tools-Configuration Editor or type gconf-editor in terminal). Then modify the opacity value in /apps/gwd/metacity_theme_opacity.


The screeshots are in low quality due the size limit of gnome-look.

Dec 13 minor color changes in both gtk and metacity

Dec 20 metacity improved. minor color change in gtk.
