Before my Beryl experiments, I briefly toyed with creating a new theme. I actually came up with something that I liked a lot. But upon returning to metacity I discovered that Edgy Eft has a theme that, while not perfect, is closer to what I want than what I came up with. A better starting place, if you will, though I’m still not very pleased with the title bars and will probably customize it at some point.
The theme name is Blubuntu. It is a pleasing theme with white and light grey backgrounds, accented with blue. In many ways, it’s exactly what I was looking for: A modernization of the old Apple System 7 theme.
You can install it with synaptic.
