I have some killer gnome themes that I really like, but epiphany or firefox simply won't follow the desktop theme without rendering the controls unusable in many cases. I like you created custom chrome.css files by taking pages apart with the DOM inspector to set the input control color to use the theme color only to have it break on the next site. For some apps (like egroupware), a few simple customizations cure the problem and I do that for the 3 web apps I have, but ... that doesn't help the other billion or so potential pages on the net. As for a great reverse theme. I really like the following. Just create a directory for the theme under ~/.themes and make sure you have the needed gtk and metacity parts installed (there standard stuff): [Desktop Entry] Name=dcr+neon+sonar Type=X-GNOME-Metatheme Comment=after crash cleanup [X-GNOME-Metatheme] GtkTheme=QtCurve MetacityTheme=Sonar IconTheme=Neon GtkColorScheme=fg_color:#bd70bd70bd70,bg_color:#333333333333,text_color:#dc28dc28dc28,base_color:#1eb81eb81eb8,selected_fg_c olor:#ffffffffffff,selected_bg_color:#414190b5e473,tooltip_fg_color:#d1ebd1ebd1eb,tooltip_bg_color:#3d703d703d70 CursorTheme=Vanilla-DMZ-AA CursorSize=24 NotificationTheme=bubble See if you like it. -- David C.
