*** Tested and intended for Ubuntu 11.04 ONLY ***

The Ubuntu Fitts Ambiance theme is intended to be used on Ubuntu 11.04 therefore the panel bg has been changed to solid black to match the Unity panel. To use it on gnome panel rename panel2.png to panel.png in the theme's img folder. Unity users/testers might want to set the unity panel opacity to 0.67 from the compiz unity plugin for a better experience.

How to install?

· Right click on your desktop and select Change Desktop Background
· Click on the first tab: Theme
· Drag and drop the theme's archive in the Appearance Preferences window.
· If everything is OK, you will receive a confirmation message and you can activate the theme just by clicking on it.

About GNOME:

GNOME is an international effort to build a complete desktop environment—the graphical user interface which sits on top of a computer operating system—entirely from free software. This goal includes creating software development frameworks, selecting application software for the desktop, and working on the programs which manage application launching, file handling, and window and task management.

GNOME is part of the GNU Project and can be used with various Unix-like operating systems, most notably Linux, and as part of Java Desktop System in Solaris.

The name originally stood for GNU Network Object Model Environment, though this acronym is deprecated. The GNOME project puts heavy emphasis on simplicity, usability, and making things “just work”.

What is new in this release:

• Too many bugs in the Icon theme provided so the default icon theme changed to AwOken.

Requirements:

• gtk+
• GNOME
