Description: Gnome Shell theme for Gnome version 3.8/3.6.
This theme is a modification of Frieze. However, optically it looks quite different. It is my first theme.
========== Known issues ==========
• When using multiple monitors, only the background of the primary monitor is changed when switching to activities mode. • Color of theme might not be suitable for all desktop backgrounds. • Theme uses many shadows and thus might slow down older computers. • There are some inconsistencies regarding the design. • Popup of chat in message tray does not have a shadow.
========== Installation instructions ==========
Without changing screenshield and login screen: • Place the folder called “roboto” in /usr/share/fonts. • Place the folder called “Ostfriesland” in /usr/share/themes. • Choose theme “Ostfriesland” for example in Gnome Tweak Tool.
Changing also screenshield and login screen: • Place the folder called “roboto” in /usr/share/fonts. • Rename the file /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-shell.css. • Place “ostfriesland” and the gnome-shell.css of the Ostfriesland theme in /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme. • Choose default theme for example in Gnome Tweak Tool.Last changelog:
1.2: Gnome 3.8 support – Jul 18 2013
1.1: Design improvements (hopefully). – May 6 2013

Thank you. Yes, I plan to add support for 3.8 but cannot say when it will be available at the moment.
nice theme!
Thank you. It is somewhat different for sure. It would be cool, if one could choose different colors but this is much work.
