  7. SKUNKAPEMAN says:

    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! 🙂

    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?

    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.

  12. Tony says:

    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.
