Description:
A BeOS-like theme heavily inspired by Kim Kahn's "Black Emerald" theme from kims-area.com (but using none of it's resources, I couldn't download the original so I created this instead).

This theme is somewhat of a kludge, as compiz window shadow rendering makes no allowances for transparency, so the theme renders it's own fake shadowing, you need to turn rendering off in Emerald (or make a rule in the window decorator plugin to prevent compiz from adding shadows to normal windows... if anyone knows how to do that, please advise).

Please test this theme and let me know of any problems -this is my first attempt at an Emerald theme so try to be constructive.
Last changelog:

0.02 - fixed a minor aberration on inactive window shadow
1.0 - Reduced radius on tab corners, increased visibility on black backgrounds

...but i notice a disturb with the background. A window with a long title, let the buttons on the right cross the background black. Cheers.
