1.0 First beta version. 1.1 Fix few install theme's install error.
sorry but in the newest Ubuntu help (12.04 LTS) the worlds "Startup Applications" do not matches any contents, could you give us a hand in identify where to add "New Wave - Chronos.sh"
I just read that script, it's amazingly simple.
A loop that checks what the current hour is, an if case that copies a file over the current theme file depending on what hour it is, a command to "update" the current theme and a 1 hour sleep command at the end of the loop.
Brilliant. I wanna make one too now!
I am unfortunately a KDE user, but when I saw of this idea on Ubuntu Geek I couldn't help but find it interesting. Dynamic themes are pretty much unexplored territory, so any effort on that field deserves praise!

Great job.
@cb2k I would like, update next weekend with GTK if I could find time to do it. @Sloshy Don't worry, you can be fan if you like it XD
accidentally voted this as "bad". I really like it! Using right now ^_^
Forgot to ask - Do you think you can do this with a gtk2.x theme?

Astounding work. How'd something as cool & ingenious as this not get noticed and voted more positively than this is beyond me.
