Big big thx for that greate themes. Plz give us more!
i don’t see shortcut button in bellow, like in aqua dreams. What should i do, thanks..
Are there any plans to port these to Lucid 10.04? I miss my favorite themes!
It’s any way to use themes on kubuntu ?
Yes, please port these beautiful themes to 10.04!
Thanks ofr all your hard work! 🙂
I tried the repo for my Lucid version. It worked!!! Thanks a lot.
I’m glad to hear these great themes work in Lucid!!!
Here’s what makes these Ubuntu themes the best on the internet:
*Installation instructions were easy to follow and worked flawlessly! I’m a Linux newb and even I can install theme!
*They are complete themes, not parts of themes you have to put together yourself.
*They work properly! Some themes have bugs, these are flawless!
*They are beautiful! Some themes are quite ugly. These themes were created by someone with real artistic talent!
MORE THEMES PLEASE, YOUR FANS ARE HUNGRY! 🙂
so i downloaded it but where do i find it
Thank you for this. The more I play with Ubuntu, the more I love it. All thanks to amazing people in the Ubuntu community like you.
These are great but I don’t get the icon bar at the bottom such as picture shows in Aqua Dreams or Ubuntu Sunrise. Is there a trick to get it?
Thsnks
Tony –
The panel you are talking about is called ‘Docky”. You can check it out at https://launchpad.net/docky.
You can use Ubuntu Software Center to easily download it.
Hope this helps.
Thanks Garth, worked like a charm. However in 9.10 you can’t install in Ubuntu Software Center you need to use the Terminal. Here is the link for those who want to know.
