Description:
A Redmond WinXP clone(Beta)
The newest addition to the Redmond series.

Designed for use with XFCE, includes GTK3, XFWM4, Metacity (Marco) WM, MATE desktop and Firefox themes.
Included is a no-csd package for those who use the gtk-nocsd plugin. GTK3 port is mostly complete.

-In latest version: Removed text shadows from titlebar and sidebar, menu arrow fixes.

To install: Extract RedmondXP or RedmondXP-nocsd archive to ~/.themes or /usr/share/themes/

Firefox:
Extract the RedmondXP-Firefox archive into your Firefox profile directory. (ex ~/.mozilla/firefox/user.default/)
[ If you have not enabled custom user style sheets before, eg userchrome: ]
2. Navigate to "about:config" in Firefox
3. Enter the following text in the search box: toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
4. Set the option toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets to True
5. Close all sessions of Firefox and restart Firefox

Limitations:
Some menus are decorated with the blue window borders, still troubleshooting. Disabling compositing fixes issue for now.
Not all panel plugins in Xfce4 are supported yet, some plugins may look out of place in the panel.
Currently the GTK2 theme is not ready for release, my Redmond97 (Win9x) GTK2 theme is included for now.
Support for Cinnamon desktop is not yet supported, however work is currently in progress.
Issues with rounded CSD borders are not resolved, using squared corners for compatibility.

Pamac-manager needs some adjustments. https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/pamac Pamac is a package manager used very often in all distributions based on Arch Linux. http://s.go.ro/ysx33o49

10 The best version of the theme from WinXP. Not without bugs (mainly on GNOME), but all is not lost yet, I recommend.

10 You did a very hard work on this theme. For this i rate it 10 points. On some widgets you did too much of a 1:1 copy imho.
