Unhappy GTK 2.0 Themes are worthless?


These themes are pathetic. It just changes the window border. Am I missing something? I can't make GNOME 2.0 look very exciting. Ooh, I have a Mac window border. Woopy =/

Am I doing something wrong? Is there a special way to install these things? What gives?

What more were you looking for? I am not sure I see what you want out of a theme?

Cool

The gtk themes just change the window border and buttons etc
Run any window managers like sawfish, enlightenment on gnome and then install themes for that WM.
