Description: Basically I took this Ambiance theme: http://box-look.org/content/show.php/Ambiance_karlinux?content=124916 and modded it a bit.Last changelog:
v1.0 - added some bigger \"hover icons\" for a nice animation effect - changed the maximize icon - changed orange color - changed the rounded shape of the buttons
v1.0_2 - tested a different maximize icon download from here: opendrive.com/files/15885841_kj6vQ_031d/AmbianceDV_2.obt
This theme really looks nice. It's great. But... do you think you could do a version with square buttons instead. If it's not possible to make round buttons look better in Openbox, I'd really appreciate square buttons. Thanks!!
It's difficult to make smooth circles in the buttons, because they are small, monochrome (1-bit) xbm files, with no anti-aliasing.
I don't know if they've changed it since, but when I made my theme there was no other apparent way to create round buttons than to just draw them as round as possible.

Thanks for this theme -- these are the best looking round buttons I've seen for OpenBox yet. :)

I have been curious about round buttons in open box is it possible to draw the circles more smoothly or is that a limitation in openbox?
Great Work ;) This looks really good and is a very good addition to a total conversion mod for lubuntu in ubuntu ;)
