Description: This is the result of two experiments. 1) I tried to create a dark theme for bright LCDs. The result was "Jet", found on this site. A requested modification led me to this nice brown color and i wanted to do something with it. 2) The Robotorch superactiontheme led me to the Clearlooks engine, which is nice, badly documented and easy to modify - as far as i can say.
Like said earlier, the name derives from the sugar container of my girlfriend. After checking again i have to say the container is terracotta. My bad. The name stays, though.
Have fun and feel free to comment.Last changelog:
*** Initial release *** Nothing to say here.
*** 1.1 *** Cleaned up the XML. Fixed a combo box issue. Firefox is slightly misbehaving by ignoring the prelight and focus settings (as always in regards to Clearlooks). OOo on the other hand works remarkedly well.
I just installed your latest version of this. I've been using some other themes for a while, (I especially like the Xfce engine and its included themes). The colour choice is fantastic! I really like where you are going with this. The blue compliments the strange shade of brown. As usual, nice work.
Thank you very much!
There are still some issues especially with Firefox and Thunderbird, but i guess i only have to find the right option to tweak. Stay tuned, this can only get better.
I've been following your work for a while, I registered with Gnome-look just so I could comment.
I like your themes, especially the original 'Jet'
Keep up the great work. In my opinion, Sugarshack has too much orange in the colour.
I look forward to your updates.

Thank you very much! I appreciate it.
I will look into color issue. I'm not quite happy with Sugarshack also and intended to do something about it. I will also try to improve Jet. Unfortunatly i only have time in bursts, mainly at the weekend, and this will be the time i take into it.
Thank you again.
Regards

Very nice. I like dimmer, brownish themes; they seem easier on the eyes than gray.
Thank you and i agree mostly. Unfortunatly i am currently lacking time to do an awful lot on my themes. So it stays a little rough for now, sorry :-(
