Clearlooks-Phénix aims at creating a GTK3 port of Clearlooks, the default theme for Gnome 2. Style is also included for GTK2, Unity and for Metacity, Openbox and Xfwm4 window managers.
Requirements:

for Clearlooks-Phénix v2: packages gtk2-engines (if GTK2 applications are used), gnome-themes-standard and gtk3-engines-unico.
for Clearlooks-Phénix v3 and newer: packages gtk2-engines (if GTK2 applications are used).
Download:
Download the appropriate version according to your situation:
for GTK 3.0 and 3.2: Clearlooks-Phénix v1;
for GTK 3.4: Clearlooks-Phénix v2;
for GTK 3.6: Clearlooks-Phénix v3;
for GTK 3.8: Clearlooks-Phénix v4;
for GTK 3.10 and 3.12: Clearlooks-Phénix v5;
for GTK 3.14: Clearlooks-Phénix v6;
for GTK 3.20: Clearlooks-Phénix v7.
To find your GTK version:
You can check in your package manager the version of the package libgtk-3-0.

Thanks.
About the close button, it's normal. The original Clearlooks theme is like this. See for example the following screenshot (gedit on Ubuntu 11.04 with Clearlooks and GTK 2.24):

The drop down menus (File, Edit, Bookmarks etc) have no border.
Navigate to Tools > Delete private data > 'Delete private data' dialog box. It has scrambled graphics, and other dialog boxes have odd graphics/colour.
I took some screenshots but cannot post here.
I'm using Unbuntu 12.04 Precise.

i found bug with my theme, if
GtkViewport {
background-color: transparent;
}
and if widget path is GtkWindow.GtkFrame.GtkFrame.GtkAlignment.GtkViewport
and overlay-scrollbar enabled, then GtkViewport have black background.
I check this several times, and every time when overlay-scrollbar was enabled, GtkViewport background was black.
also, one user report same as this bug with my theme, but he left discussion before i found this bug.

to solve the problem, you need following style

GtkLabel:insensitive {
background-color: @theme_bg_color;
}
instead transparent

If you are subscribed to my theme, and receive e-mails notifications for new versions, you'll know when some color variants will be included.
