Murrina Quiet
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
A quiet, unobtrusive theme for the murrine engine. Inspired by the buttons in Vista and Gmail's baby blue hues.
I've been slowly fine-tuning this for a couple of months now and it should be bug-free, in GNOME at least. I have no clue what it looks like in XFCE, bug reports are welcome.
GTK+ Code based on the proposed Ubuntu Human-Murrine Dark, with some bits of Shiki-Colors.
Metacity is a shameless hack of Dust.

But again a bit different.
I like it! Thanks!

My only suggestion would be to have the maximize icon change when maximized. Other than that I love it!

The window decoration is just a simple hack of Dust, as I'm absolutely crap with pixmaps. However, the maximize is just an up arrow. What would you wish the restore to look like? An arrow pointing down or a dash would look too much like a minimize button. If you could whip up an alternate button in accordance with the others, I'd be more than happy to use it.

I'll take a stab at something for the maximize/restore icon and see what I can do.

With terminal, the theme makes the menubar transparent. However with other applications e.g. thunar etc the menu bar is not transparent.
Other than that it works great :)
Thanks

The new murrine engine supports real widget transparency, which I should've turned off. I'll do so in the next update, but I have a couple of other little fixes to write first.
In the meantime, open the gtkrc and change line 95: "rgba = TRUE" to FALSE.
Thanks for the catch.

Of course, the first thing to do is try the theme out and see if it works. It's quite possible that your distribution already has a compatible version.
Failing that, you can compile the engine yourself from SVN, or hunt down a package appropriate to your distribution.
Best of luck.

What's the font in the screen?

In GNOME Appearance Preferences use regular, size 8.6 (which for some reason GNOME transforms to 8.59961!) for Application, bold 8.6 for Desktop & Window, regular 9 for Document.
Hope this helps.

one thing, on the very latest murrine svn, it doesn't work because of a small problem. the "style" line in the gtkrc causes it to break for some reason. remove that and it's fine.
