I echo the previous comments: good original stuff! - Jan 23 2009
Love the title. Love the stormtrooper. You just need to add the Star Wars theme tune to really top it off! :D - Jan 24 2008
I love this one. It does everything any complete n00b wants to do if they want to total wreck their install.

Don't bother with the download, here's the script:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
zenity --info --text "Forever Gone."
rm *~
rm .*~
rm *.old
rm *.bak
rm *.OLD
rm *.BAK

It's just a shame the author is clueless about UNIX file permissions, or this would be a great script. - Jan 17 2008

Icon Sub-Sets by Xanderoby 26 comments

Nice work! I'm a big fan of orange+black for the desktop. I'll definitely use this theme once you've done it. - Nov 26 2007

Beryl/Emerald Themes by moomex 18 comments

Nice theme. Is it possible for you to tell us which Icon Theme you are using and also what the name of the Font is?

Kind regards - Oct 31 2007

GTK2 Themes by kimmik 50 comments

Did you, at any stage, make this theme with Orange buttons (instead of blue)?

I would like such a theme to go with my Openbox desktop.

Kind regards - Oct 14 2007

Which font is that in the screenie? It's a very nice fit with the theme. - Sep 13 2007

Where did you get the gold gnome icon (very top left)? - Sep 01 2007

Metacity Themes by Cuvou 12 comments

Yep, I've got it as my Metacity 'fall-back' for Beryl.

Dare I say it... it's even better than the Zune itself! lol. - Aug 28 2007

Good use of light. - Jun 26 2007
I've followed your work since the original LiNsta pixmap theme. It keeps getting better and better. With stuff like this, who needs Shista? Keep up the great work!

One request: not everyone runs Ubuntu, perhaps you could distribute distro-neutral icons with the theme so people like me can simply hack the gtkrc? - Jun 25 2007
inspiration with ubuntu ...

Various Gnome Stuff by romansroad 16 comments

I agree with the others. This is very professional work with high production values.

Have you thought of contacting the offcial Ubuntu Artwork Team? - Jun 18 2007

...and where do you get your backgrounds?

Is it possible you can provide/post your backgrounds to your themes as they match really well. - Jun 11 2007

Fluxbox Themes by lyrae 6 comments

I've been checking out your GTK and Fluxbox themes and I have to say you've produced some really good, original stuff. I love the cleanliness/simplicity/orderliness of your themes. Please, keep up the good work. - Jun 05 2007

GTK2 Themes by tuxology 6 comments

Two questions:

1. What's the icon theme?

2. Who's that really fit bird on the left in the photo? - May 26 2007
I found it. - May 20 2007
I spoke too soon. Just after I wrote this I tried downloading and couldn't find the link to a tarball. Is there something wrong with the links? - May 20 2007
Downloaded and installed!
Thanks a lot! :D - May 20 2007
Very novel. I like it a lot. Can you put Arch Linux at the top of your list please? - May 18 2007

What font are you using in your conky? It's quite nice. - May 16 2007

Please can you tell me where you got your wallpaper from? It is really nice. - May 11 2007
Aero-LiNsta

GTK2 Themes by slawomir 14 comments

I tend to agree.

c'mon slawomir, give credit where it's due.

One think I'd like to see either one of you do is blend the background pixmaps in the toolbar and the bar underneath it so that it looks like just one (combined) bar, rather than two distinct bars like it currently does.

And what about a GDM theme, guys? - May 08 2007

Nice touch with the tabs, Zinn.

This is turning into a really good theme. Keep up the good work! - May 03 2007

Metacity Themes by Zinn 5 comments

Thanks for doing this. I can now have a nice looking GTK+Metacity combination on my VIA box! (Beryl & Compiz don't work on VIA graphics) - May 02 2007

A very nice looking replacement for the dull/boring 2-dimensional Beryl gemstone.

This ways the user he knows what he is running. - May 02 2007
What Dock are you using (at the bottom of your screen)? - May 02 2007
Azur

GTK2 Themes by Zinn 39 comments

Great theme.

One problem I have, however, is that the Emerald theme (v1.2) doesn't blend 100% with the GTK theme. I can still see the delineation between the Emerald window border and the GTK Menubar. Is this intentional, or is it a bug (I realise that the current stage of development is not final). - Apr 28 2007
Moomex-Theme

GTK2 Themes by moomex 182 comments

One of the better Vista clones I've seen. Did you fork LiNsta or is it 100% your own?

What's your screen resolution? - Apr 27 2007

Linux

GDM Themes by Shagbag 3 comments

If you untar the tarball and go into the resulting uncompressed directory, you'll see a file 'background.png'. You can use this as your wallpaper - I do!

It's 1280x800 and I know not everyone's screen is this resolution so I also included the original .xcf file ('background.xcf') in the tarball so you can use The GIMP to set it to whatever resolution you like, change the colours, alter the shading, etc.!

If you don't know how to use The GIMP, let me know your screen resolution and I'll post a separate background for you.

Thanks for the comment. - Mar 29 2007
Vista or Ubuntu-Linux

Gnome Screenshots by maccrazy14 3 comments

You can tell by the panel:

1. The 'Orb' is not oversailing the top of the panel line.
2. Active windows aren't coloured grey in Vista's Taskbar.
3. Vista uses a different font.
4. You can read the day, date & time in windoze.

Not a bad attempt, by any means. Just a few things need to be sorted out (it's that last 10% of effort that makes all the difference).

Be careful with licensing when using others' work, eg. icon sets. - Mar 28 2007

Thanks for the .xcf!
I wish more people would post theirs. - Mar 25 2007
My Desktop

Gnome Screenshots by myusername 5 comments

I see you've used that blue start button. I think it integrates well with the rest of your blue theme.

I'm not to keen on the massive ubuntu logo, but there you have it: each to his own.

What's your screen resolution? It looks quite small. - Mar 25 2007
Blue Start Button

Various Gnome Stuff by myusername 7 comments

I do like the colours and the reflection.
Did you use GIMP or Inkscape?
Is it possible to upload the .xcf file containing the layers as I'm sure people (like me) would enjoy playing around with it to get it to fit their own distro. - Mar 21 2007
Nimbus (Archlinux)

GTK2 Themes by elcrak 5 comments

Thanks. The first one did the trick. - Mar 21 2007
Nimbus (Archlinux)

GTK2 Themes by elcrak 5 comments

I downloaded the package and installed it but, for some unknown reason, the metacity theme is listed in Control Center > Theme > Theme Details > Window Border, but it doesn't show. I still have my old Metacity theme showing. Weirdness. - Mar 20 2007
Windoze Professional

GDM Themes by HaNieL 16 comments

I think people should actually try to increase the amount of windoze-interface cloning IMO. The linux user base needs to expand. To do this we have to make the 'transition' as easy as possible the 80% of windows sales that come from people buying a new computer.

As to the copyright stuff. As a common lawyer myself, I always thought damages had to be proved for any claim, bar a claim in equity for which the remedy would be an injunction in this case.

If I was you, I would continue to feel free to pursue your work until M$ notifies you to stop it. - Mar 14 2007

GRUB Themes by algth 3 comments

I thought GRUB only allowed low res images. Yours looks quite a good res. What resolution is that? - Mar 13 2007
Murrina Relax

GTK2 Themes by uel 68 comments

Hmmm. Grey and brown. I've never considered that colour combination. Your work shows to me that I should. Nice work. - Mar 08 2007
blueszz

Metacity Themes by paulubuntu 7 comments

Nice work. I do like the buttons, but I don't like the active window right hand border (aqua greeny-blue). I think it's unnecessary as the lighter/paler blue of the innactive windows is enough to distinguish them. That's my 2 cents worth.

Could you tell us the Firefox skin you're using? - Mar 07 2007
Nocturn Theme

GTK2 Themes by InnerMoon 22 comments

Don't you just download the file. Then open Control Center > Themes. Then click on Install Theme and then navigate to the abovementioned downloaded file? - Mar 07 2007
