Description: Dark red theme for those night stalkers out there..
**Caution, keep theme away from sunlight as it may cuase the theme to burst into flames!!Last changelog:
v1.2 -Theme and previews uploaded
!!Update!! v1.2.2 Metacity frame header corrected color. Now can be seen much easier. New screeny uploaded as well. May have to refresh your broser for the new screenshot to show up.
!!update!! v1.2.3 -Adjusted Button colors, now brighter. -Added Menu graphic. -New screenshots uploaded.
*Notes: Noticed on some monitors that colors didnt show well and looked dirty. That should be corrected now. Also these themes show best in dark rooms.
First off, I love the theme! It's gorgeous! The only problem I have is with Firefox. A lot of the text turns VERY light gray, especially in my gmail, so it's very hard to see, if at all visible.
Personally, I find this is a good attempt.
However, I notice, using this theme, my Evolution becomes hard to use. Fonts colors became too pale or unreadable.
Hmm. Very interesting. I use Evolution as well and everything is always very crisp and clear. If you can email me a screenshot I would love to take a look and see if its something I am able to fix on my end. Also sometimes the program needs to be restarted for new font colors to take effect.
The issue is not the theme at all. The issue is you may have users sending you email were the email has a specifies background, but a unspecified font color.
I send my self a email and everythign is fine. But I do know what your talking about as I have freinds and family who send the fancy background for there email but never take the time to specify a black , blue or red font..
This is a enherent problem when it comes to using dark themes.
I would recomend if you have anyone that sends you email, to ask them to send plain text. HTML email is overated anyway.

Gnome Terminal as shown above has the otption under the settings to software tint the terminal.

I think this only affect HTML emails. Try send a few HTML emails to yourself.
