Divergence IV - " A New Hope "
by jurialmunkey

Requires Murrine Engine > 0.98

INSTALLATION
I have removed the installer because too many people complained about it. Here are install instructions:

Extract the .zip to a folder
Open Appearance Preferences
Click "Install..."
Locate the folder you extracted the .zip to and select "A-New-Hope.tar.gz"

CUSTOMISATION
Open Nautilus
Press Ctrl+H to show hidden folders
Open ".themes"
Open "A-New-Hope"
Double Click customise.py

EMERALD (TRANSPARENCY)
To get transparency, you will need to install Compiz and Emerald. There are emerald themes included within the .zip file.
To make emerald stay default, go into CompizConfig Settings Manager > Window Decoration > and in the box next to "Command" enter: emerald --replace
Then hit ALT + F2 to get a run dialog and enter: emerald --replace


AWN - AVANT WINDOW NAVIGATOR
The AWN style used is called Lucido. There are themes in the .zip

KNOWN ISSUES
- Metacity can only be used with left sided buttons. (A right side version will come soon)
- Toolbar colours which are not dark make the breadcrumbs look ugly.
- Metacity only follows colour changes correctly with the A New Hope gtk (this is due to minor hack that had to be implemented in order for the colour changes to work. There is also a fixed colour version of the metacity which matches with Ambiance)
- Window title text sizes over 15pnt cause issues
- TESB colour changes do not change the colours of the rounded corners of the sidebar (this is due to pixmaps being used and unfortunately cannot be fixed)

Daily Deviation

Given 2010-10-24
Divergence IV - "A New Hope" by ~jurialmunkey - the suggester said: "Looks to me like someone has just broken the walls down. Beautiful and unusual color combination with simple window buttons together with little aero look. Favesome Gnome theme that should be in your pocket of Linux theme collection."

This is (brace yourselves for a very conceited and arrogant comment!) the first theme I have seen in ages that I didn't make and I would use myself!

this looks great but in ubuntu 12.04 there's no install in the Appearance preferences (assuming you mean the one under System settings) and it doesn't show up in gnome-tweak if A-New-Hope.tar.gz is extracted to .themes manually either.. wat do?

I've been using this since I first saw it, but I'm wondering; any chance we get a gtk3-port of this? Is seems more and more inevitable that I end up seeing gtk3 stuff on my desktop sooner or later :(

Disregard my last comment, I finally got it working after a few hours of installing packages. There's one thing I just can't get right. When I apply the theme without Emerald the border (which doesn't have transparency) looks correctly rounded, but when I turn on Emeraldand the transparency looks good there's something wrong with the window border, over the title the border seems blurry and looks 1 px down off where it's supposed to be.
If anyone has something on it I would appreciate it.
Thanks again for making this theme.

Hey there folks, I'm kinda new in this so I can't install the theme correctly. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, I and I just want to know how to make it work like the one in the image. What's Emerald? And AWN?
I'm just asking because i've downloaded it and installed it but I just can't get it right.

Thanks to the creator for this awesome theme, and to everyone answering this.
