Description: Just want the cool looking Ubuntulooks engine and nothing else? Well, today's your lucky day! I've got just the engine for your friends who don't want all of the other artwork!
Since the amount of Ubuntulooks based themes have increased lately, I just thought it would be good to release it seperatly too!
There is a readme in the zip:
=============================
Ubuntulooks Engine Installation Instructions
=============================
Step 1.
Copy libubuntulooks.so and libubuntulooks.la to /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/2.*.*/engines as root (substitute "2.*.*" with your version number)
Step 2.
Copy the Human folder to /usr/share/themes/ as root (or to ~/.themes , but it will only be on your account)
Step 3.
Go into your Gnome Theme Prefrences and select Human (or any other Ubuntulooks enabled GTK theme, Human is just included as an example) as your theme under Controls and Window Border. The metacity theme used on Human is a modified version of ClearLooks 2.0 if you wonder, but any other will do too!
I installed exactly as the readme, but it still says ubuntulooks is not installed. I even restarted, but no help. am i supposed to install the .so or something? if so, how do i do it?

Can't you just download that from here? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/ubuntulooks/ubuntulooks_0.9.11.orig.tar.gz
That be source code my friend...mine comes precompiled, so you just have to copy it all to the right place...
Where exactly would that right place be?
