Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
Description:
VeryVerySneaky metacity is a simple metacity that should blend well with any GTK theme.
TO INSTALL
1st. Download and unzip the contents of the .zip file to the /usr/share/themes/ folder
(you will need super user priviledges for this);
2nd. use the Gnome Tweak Tool (Gnome3) to select the Windows - Current Theme (choose VeryVerySneaky); or use the Appearance Settings of Gnome2 to choose the window borders.
Notice that gnome-shell will need to be restarted for the new window borders to appear.
For that, press Alt+F2, write r and hit enter (after Gnome 3.4, this step is not needed).
Assuming you have wget and unzip on your system, you may also try the following commands to install the theme:
wget www.deviantart.com/download/321802924/veryverysneaky_metacity_by_kant_o-d5blcq4.zip
unzip VeryVerySneaky.zip
sudo cp -r VeryVerySneaky/ /usr/share/themes/
rm -r VeryVerySneaky
rm VeryVerySneaky.zip
For Gnome3, do the following additional steps:
1st. open gnome-tweak-tool
2nd. select VeryVerySneaky in the Themes - Window Theme option
3rd. Press Alt+F2, write r, and hit enter (after Gnome 3.4, this step is not needed).
For gnome2, go to the appearance settings and change the window borders of the current theme. No need to restart anything.
Feel free to change or improve the theme at your will. Constructive feedback is also welcomed.

Just installed on Mint 13 Cinnamon and it works beautifully. Really suits the Cinnamon (and Mint) look. Many thanks. :)
I'm glad to hear that! Thanks for letting me know! :)
I love it, it looks so good works great on light or dark themes, really phenomenal!
Thank you very much, I really appreciate it. I tried to make it go with both dark and light themes. I'm glad you like it :) Best Regards
