Description: I did a lot of trial and error until I kindof got a result that matches the elementary feeling - a little.
I don't know of a way to get rid of the menubars (hide them,'globalmenu' them or 'menubutton' them).
Icon theme is just the elementary mono dark icons from the elementary-icon-theme package of the elementary ppa - I always delete the trash folder icon, tho. Personally I prefer the Humanity one.
The tar.gz contains: * Almost-Elementary gtk2, gtk3 and metacity theme. (metacity is basically just adwaita in a little less... HUGE) (goes into /usr/share/themes/ ) * gnome-shell-theme - the theme folder for gnome shell - directly taken from /usr/share/gnome-shell/ since I don't use extensions.
You should know what you are doing if you want to use this. And make backups.
Man I can't wait to see what DanRabbit is cooking up for gtk3 - thats going to be pro.
v0.3 (Jun 2, 2011): fixes for the updated adwaita-engine. new download link
Heh, thanks. For "good work" I guess I should have traced at least the sources what code snippet is from whom instead of just uploading something hacked/patched/pasted together.
I'm shure there are other people out there using gnome-shell on natty (or some other distribution without available alpha(?) gtk3 engines on it) who still want their gtk2 and gtk3 apps at least matching.
And I just think that "made of easy" and gnome-shell kindof go well together.
Oh I checked that, just since there is no natty version of that seemingly required engine, I just cooked this up for the time being.
As I said: I'm really looking forward to what the pro does. For now this patchwork does allright, don't you think? Plus it works on natty+gnome-shell repos without any more hassle.
But I'll definately keep my eyes on the egkt launchpad. ;)

Yeah it uses unico gtk engine. Sorry I don't use Ubuntu but Frugalware (I'm in charge of the artwork). Anyway, good work :)

DanRabbit already works on the GTK3 version of Elementary, check the bzr repo here http://launchpad.net/egtk/
