This is my first theme so please do not be too hard on me. This is just a "beta" so let me know of anything that needs improvement. I would greatly appreciate any knowledge that can be shared about pixmaps.

--1.1b - Theme's pixmaps are working properly now.
Good work. Thanks. This theme is getting better and better. However, there are a few things I do not like.First, I prefer a transparent panel.But the notification area is still using the theme panel background instead of being transparent. Another issue is that some fonts in drop down menu or tool bar are not focused.Maybe, you want them to look this way. But I just do not like them.
Anyway, great work. Keep it up.
Thanks for the advice I will see what I can do. Right now I am working on new pixmaps for the buttons, scrollbars, and tabs and I really want to upload it tonight, so I am limited on time.
It is not the engine it is the theme...
I am not sure what has gone wrong but now the only way the theme will run properly is if the pixmaps are taken out. I am trying to fix this problem but if not done soon I will release the theme without pixmaps.
--- Note: The Metacity theme is still running properly ---

But I recommend to you a more curved corners over the buttons. I like very much your theme, very good work

By the way, I don't like the blue ball with white triangle inside in the dropdown menu.
You made two mistakes I think - a black font on the gray background, and white font on the light gray background. The rest of the theme is nice.

Good work my friend I like
Does this theme require particular GTK engine?
