PLEASE SEND ME YOUR FEEDBACK!
This theme is based off of the marvelous Synthesis theme - most of the graphics are mine, but the Synthesis config files have been virtually untouched.
I've tried to go for a smooth look, trying to get away from the obnoxious highlights that seem to dominate interface design nowadays.
Again, I greatly appreciate *any and all feedback* people can give. I'm particularly unsatisfied with the way the progress bar and menu highlights look, and would like suggestions on how to improve them. Send comments to jqubit [at] gmail [dot] com.

Screenshots have been updated with the transparency removed. Just so that there's no further confusion, this is *not* a metacity or emerald theme. I do not use a window decorator (compiz solves all problems), so none is shown in these pictures. If somebody feels compelled to make a metacity theme matching this GTK+ theme that would be great.

Now the suggestions...
- The menu highlights should probably be gray or blue-tinted gray, IMO. Maybe the color used for a depressed button (e.g. the play button in a media player while it's playing something). The progress bar I'm not so sure about; maybe the aforementioned color... Or maybe the one used for highlighted list entries.
- I think the scrollbars could be a little bit narrower. Maybe the menubars (and tabs?) could be slimmed a little too, though I'm not actually sure that's possible with GTK2...

also, buttons dont have any borders, so its hard telling them apart until you mouseover them.
also, your screenshots confuse me. i see the macmenubar, but where is the window border?
