I have Archlinux. I have downlaoded your package and extracted it into /usr/share/themes but when trying to change gnome-shell theme using gnome-tweak-tool it is not recognized as a gnome-shell theme. Furthermore, I have browsed into the folders of your themes to selected the desired one and when within gnome-shell for each of your themes it is not recognized as a valid theme.

I really like your theme, for me it's only perfect. The only thing that disturb me are the white letters on orange background (on activated or selcted items), in this case black letters would be better for visbility. thank you for the theme.

Thanks for the comment and the compliment I tried here at home with black,dark grey, and some more colors The change of colour of text was something that made me nervous - that's why i kept the white colour But i'll give it a new try for the next version -or i'll make the shadow a bit darker/bigger

pulpo69

if it is difficult to change the colour a darker shadow would be a good idea.

The notification popup, which is shown by rhythmbox to inform a user about the current playing track, looks very ugly, because the content of the popup is bigger than the popup. Screenshot: http://ge.tt/8eRpYKl/v/0

Hello serge Congratulations you theme, is great. I suggest you change these lines in your theme to work properly with the extension window list, which in classic mode is enabled by default. near line 2246. ___________________________________________ .summary-source-counter { background-image: url("summary-counter.svg"); background-size: 2.4em; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold; height: 2.4em; width: 2.4em; -shell-counter-overlap-x: 8px; -shell-counter-overlap-y: 8px; } _______________________________________________ Before http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/2434/screenshotfrom201303051.png After http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/2434/screenshotfrom201303051.png

i like the orange version very nice with the conky theme one small negative point: if you use opera the orange fields are browner than in other apps And in opera some fields are blue .... for the rest great work - i am already awaiting the next version :)
