Description:

Shinobi is a dark theme. My girlfriend coined the name.

I am very sorry I removed the color schemes from my theme. I was being lazy and forgot to add them back in when I updated it. I have fixed this. They are not pictured, but I added two more colors for a total of: Blue, Green, Orange, Red, Purple and Pink! I hope this makes up for my laziness.

This theme needs Murrine SVN and Aurora.

My font is ITCFranklinGothic Medium size 10 slight hinting.

My Icons
GNOME-colors:
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/GNOME-colors?content=82562

It uses many dark shades of grey to differentiate widgets, and has muted accents. This theme strives to keep all the beauty of a dark theme without sacrificing the usability of a lighter theme.

Many thanks to the axiom theme, I based my xfwm off of it.
http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php/axiom+xfwm?content=90145

If there is anything you dislike about this theme, let me know before you vote down. I might fix it.

I will not make emerald or metacity themes. If you like my theme, make them yourself. If you make one, please send it to me and I will credit you and incorporate it into the suite.

Changelog:

2.1:[b]
- Color schemes added

[b]2.0:
- Many changes, including menus, scrollbars, and overall colors

1.2:
- Lightened textarea
- Changed calendar to match textarea

1.1:
- Changed menu padding from 8 to 4
- Decreased xfwm lightborder brightness

There are many dark themes around; this is one of the better ones. Simple, usable, and smooth without too much bling. Nice!

Thanks :)
Bling is definitely the right word. Most dark themes simply have none, or they have way too much (like every single pixmap theme with a 12px gloss at the top of every button). Believe it or not, until yesterday, this theme was completely flat.

I was able to make a decoration that looked similar to this just fine. but in porting over the window buttons emerald needs an image for when you hover over the buttons... I suppose I could just not make the buttons look different on hover, but this would probably confuse many people. Would you be willing to make buttons?

I installed compiz and emerald so I could try and make that, but I will not install metacity nor try to make a metacity theme. I dislike the method used to create metacity themes and do not wish to learn it. If this surprises you, read the "NOTE!!!!" section in my description ;)

I hope you'll use my theme anyway. Perhaps you could recommend a good metacity theme to other users in your comments here? Maybe this theme will become popular enough for someone to make a metacity theme. Who knows.

Padding in Menu

What is the value to change to eliminate the padding around menu items (from a dropdown list, such as "File" or something)? This is a wonderful theme, and thus far, the padding or spacing is my only complaint.

Open the file ~/.themes/Shinobi/gtk-2.0/base.gtkrc (or /usr/share/themes/Shinobi/gtk-2.0/base.gtkrc if you installed this system-wide)
(Yes, it's this file even if you use a different color variant than blue)

Look for the section:
style "murrine-menu" = "murrine-wider"

In that section there are two lines:
xthickness = 8
ythickness = 8

Those numbers are the padding values, so just change them to whatever you want. Now that you mention it, I seem to prefer the values of each set to 4. I've also edited the windeco to have a slightly less noticeable light border. Thanks for your interest in my theme. I will now be uploading the new version.

Ah, I thought that was it. Thanks! Now, what about what designates the size in the main menu drop down (Applications, Internet, System...). I guess I like smaller icons/heights.

Sadly, I don't know. That's a GNOME-related thing. If you can find me another theme that incorporates the smaller icon sizes in the GNOME menu that you like, link me to it. I'll investigate it and fold the changes into my theme.

Nice theme :) I just have some very small font-size in the panels (main menu, current window etc).
Thanks for the theme.

If you dislike the font sizes, look throughout the files Shinobi/gtk-2.0/base.gtkrc and Shinobi/gtk-2.0/panel.rc

You should find lines that say "font_name =" in them. Change the numbers in them to change the font sizes. For example

Quote:
font_name = "Bold 7"

could become
Quote:
font_name = "Bold 9"

or it could become
Quote:
font_name = "8"

If that's not what you were saying or you need more help, just say so.

Panel decoration

Hi - love your theme. There's only a few dark themes that make text readable, yours is one. One question though - my panel looks rubbish compared to your screenshot - have I missed something there? Enabling transparency on the panel just leaves the window-list and the notification area opaque...

Thanks for your hard work.

Are you using xfce?
The screenshot is of an xfce desktop, so if you use GNOME it will sadly look different! D:

What distribution are you using?

If you have the newest Ubuntu, it comes with the right version of Murrine. You also need to install the Aurora engine. You can search for them with synaptic.
