Inspired from a photo that captured me. (you will recognize it in one of the screenshots)
Includes: gtk, openbox3, wallpaper
Finally pleased with the end results, I wish you as much enjoyment using, as I had creating this theme.
My thoughts on theme creating:
I like my art in the windows, where I can see it not hidden behind on the desktop.
It must have some color, alas how many people still watch black and white TV?
Tabs should be easily seen and nicely contrasted.
Likewise with fonts.
Themes usable by not only gnome desktop users but others like openbox, fluxbox, and any other that use the gtk2 themes, and don't have resources for color changers, etc.
Finally, If you see something that you think you can improve, by any means feel free to use any of my themes and modify away and post your work, nothing would make me happier and possibly benefit this community more.Last changelog:

Some people like them, some people don't. I happen to like this theme... perhaps it is nostalgic <shrug> Anyway I voted good but now you need to tell me which icon theme you're using in the screen-shots... please?
Let us turn those sour grapes into
sweet sun kissed raisins or a nice
bittersweet wine.
The icon set I use mainly is called
Snow sabre. It can be found here at;

I use some Snow sabre black thrown in as
well, ie. Firefox and Thunderbird and a couple of others.
And thanks for the vote.
