Just wanted to drop by and say that I absolutely love the window borders! I've been using this theme for a week now and I don't see me changing it anytime soon!

Simplicity, elegance & accessibility all in one! THANK YOU!!

Me too.

This is the best Metacity. It should be a GNOME default.

For sure, its Tahoma 8 bold on the titlebar and Tahoma 8 normal for the rest
Just notice that to reach this kind of antialiasing you must compile freetype with the TrueType BCI (wich is disabled by default, due to copyright)
Here's a guide that explains how to do it on gentoo

Metacity

Metacity was the default window manager used by the GNOME 2 desktop environment until it was replaced by Mutter in GNOME 3.  Wikipedia
