Evolve-Darker
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Evolve-Darker is a variant of the beautiful Evolve theme.
All credits goes to the Evolve designers (especially satya164).
Since gnome 3.8, the notebook widget renders border below the active tab and there is no way to add top margin (almost all popular custom themes have this issue). However, the default adwaita theme doesn't have these issues. It seems that the adwaita engine have a notebook rendering helper that makes it render properly.
The next GNOME version is re-implementing notebook widget with new design. Hope, gnome 3.12 would be much better.
IMPORTANT: the theme is tested on gnome-shell 3.10 only

One thing I'd like to point out just to make it more awesome: using the global dark theme in Fedora 20 and Gnome 3.10 won't change the title bar to the black style of theme in some known applications like Opera, Firefox or Aptana Studio 3, having sometimes (like firefox case) most of UI in black and title bar in white, which ruins the style :(

However some other themes actually theme the title bar properly, I'll upload screenshots later

I'll see if I can sort this out, but the issues with GTK2 apps and Synaptic are beyond me...

Also, it seems that synaptic is using some deprecated gtk widgets for toolbar (GtkHandleBox). So issue won't be fixed.

I don't know much about theming, but perhaps you might like to see "Mediterranean Tribute" themes (e.g. "MediterraneanTribute Blue") concerning these two issues: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/MediterraneanNight+Series?content=156782

GtkHandleBox {
color: @toolbar_fg_color;
background-color: @toolbar_bg_color;
background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom,
shade(@toolbar_bg_color, 1.00),
shade(@toolbar_bg_color, 0.90)
);
}
If it doesn't affect other apps, I would consider adding this fix.

I hope you can fix toolbar bgcolor of GTK2 apps in due course as well ;-)
