woow one of the best themes I've ever seen Just a couple of suggestions Silent Night-Dark -on several sites textboxes font are black like the background of textboxes, difficult to read (Firefox) -could you please make panel-bg bigger, like 30 px, just in case to want our gnome-panel bigger thanks and keep up your good effort

nale12

Yeah,internet doesn't like dark themes,it could be fixed with userContent.css. You can easily make bigger panel-bg pixmap in gimp.

juandejesuss

already done it, but if you could do this for all I won't have to do that every time you update your theme for us ;)

nale12

I will do that next time I update this theme,if I ever update :)

juandejesuss

hehe thanks so much for your effort and again congratulations, very nice theme I'm using it now

hello great clean theme bravo i m usually against pixmap (i do not know how to do) but your is really well done for firefox you should ahave a look to http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Warmth?content=106753 he found a good workaround to use firefox and Ooo without too many worries good bye (voted good).

nale12

Thanks,I will fix OpenOffice.Reason why I didn't do that till now,well,I was thinking to drop support for this theme,because there is newer version.

Thanks for the great themes, nale12! How do you remove the Ubuntu logo from the main menu? Here's a screenshot of the problem: http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/4030/menuyf.png

nale12

For removing start here icon read the README file.

Darklighter

I did. For some reason, the "Show Icons In Menus" checkbox in Gnome 2.28.1 doesn't affect the main menu anymore. See: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1295357 Has anyone found a workaround?

nale12

Yep,I know for that,pity,I was thinking you are running some earlier version of gnome.

Hi! I love this theme and I would like to put it in my desktop but it doesn't show like it should :( I give you an image and you'll see... http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/85/desktopsx.jpg I don't know what happens... Thanks for this theme and for the help!!!

simongaiteiro

Nevermind. I've upgraded it to GTK 2.18.3 and now it's ok. Great theme!!!

nale12

I think you haven't installed pixbuf engine

simongaiteiro

I think I had it before upgrading GTK+. But now it looks fine. By the way, do you know how to fix Firefox? It doesn't look good... Backgrounds are totaly black (in toolbars, bookmarks, tabs).

nale12

I am working on it.

Hi! Great theme! Unfortunately (or fortunately), I've found a bug. When I use Silent Night, and I launch any of the applications from Openoffice, it (Openoffice) has no icons. Where there should be icons there are only words; e.g. it says "open file" in words where there should be an "open file" icon. The system I'm using is Mandriva One 2010 rc2 Gnome edition. Since it's not final yet, it could be a Mandriva bug, or an Openoffice one, but it only happens with this theme, not with others. Thank you for your excelent work, anyways.

nale12

I have no problems with archlinux,but it is openoffice bug with dark themes.Try google.

I have a problem in Firefox, buttons are black... on black text. Unusable

nale12

you must delete any css file in ~/.mozilla/firefox/default/chrome folder

cedricb

One little but enoying thing : List widget in netbeans has both black foreground and background. This make the theme difficult to use for netbeans users. Regards.

nale12

I will check this,when I had time.

cedricb

Just to be more accurate, I am using the light version

nale12

now should be all right
