round-ad

round-ad is a GTK theme that looks exactly like Admod except for window frame which is rounded on top also when it's maximized.

Developer comments

Thanks to this change and to the custom panel background I made you can make your desktop looking similar to Fedora 15 with GNOME 3.

To install this theme extract the *.zip file (which also contains panel *.png file) and install the *.tar.gz file

_ Fedora-like panel _

To make your gnome-panel looking like the one on the screenshots just follow next steps:

1. you need to install GIMP (unless you already have it) and a plugin called liquid rescale: you can install it through terminal typing "apt-get install gimp-plugin-registry" (without quote) as super user

2. choose your background image and with GIMP scale it to the precise dimension of your screen

3. open black_panel.png too with GIMP, go to layer\\liquid rescale and set the exact width of your screen in pixels

4. go to select\\all, then modify\\copy and finally paste to background image you made on step 2; save the new image and use it as background

5. right click on the panel, properties/background and select a solid color, then move transparency bar completely to the left and you've done it!

(This how-to is taken mostly from the one shown in the description of the theme Zuki)

To change text color of gnome-panel you can install gnome color chooser: type on a terminal "apt-get install gnome-color-chooser" (without quote) as super user; now you can find it under system\preferences; open GNOME color chooser, select panel tab and change "normal-foreground" color (it's the first entry of the tab); eventually apply the changes.

What is new in this release:

• Added minimize, close and maximize/restore buttons similar to Adwaita's ones.
• Added new version with gradient instead of flat gray (*.zip file contains two different versions of round-ad, the flat version and the one in the last screenshot)

Requirements:

• GNOME
• gtk+
