Good morning, I am in the process of finishing a GTK theme I started a few days ago and would appreciate if you guys could give it some mileage on your respective linuses and thus help me troubleshoot the issues(if any) that may occur. Thanks.

- Requires the pixmap engine which is (or maybe not) called as pixbuf on Ubuntu and its variants.

- Install using the Theme Manager and Emerald Manager.

Screenshots:

​

Download: Odi.tar.gz [GTK, Metacity and Emerald]

*Remember you don't have to like the theme and certainly I am not asking for inputs on the look and feel of it, just use it for sometime and give me feedback on the bugs you may find ;)

-NOTE: I'm aware of the Logoff/Shutdown box issue and working on it.

-NOTE: It's not a problem at all if no one has the time to volunteer, just remember you'll get wild wolves in your dreams to scar you for life.

Ah already got it eh? Thanks for the feedback, but I won't change the look of anything anymore. I'm 100% satisifed with the look and things which seem out of place or discrepant are done intentionally ;)

WTF ? You translated the first part of your username to kannada and named the theme after it ? :p

No. I have no intentions of patronising any language, culture, faith, creed, country or religion, I hate them all equally. I was shitting thinking about the name and few came into my mind and I liked this the most of them all.

Naturally pixmap uses images to render the elements, so it should use more resources than the vanilla gtk.

Great. Nice to meet a fellow hater-of-all :D

But pixmaps means only more ram usage right ? Is the CPU usage still same ?
