http://occy.net/tmp/bs.png <--- THIS is what the end-result is supposed to look like. I can't seem to finish up the final touches, that's why what I have is in limbo and NOT a finished product. :) I don't know enough about metacity themes to complete it. :( I didn't know why exactly I wanted the squared off versions and now I think I do. Now I want it to be squared off so that it better matches the GTK Bluecurve theme. While you guys want the gtk theme curved, I simply want a squared version of the metacity theme. So anyway, to finish things up should be easy for someone that knows about metacity themes. If someone wants to make my day... feel free to finish up the "Bluesquared" theme. :) Trae On Thu, 2004-01-08 at 21:31, stevelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Quoting Trae McCombs <occy@xxxxxxxx>: > > Is this where I am supposed to complain that we need to have > > "Bluesquared" as an optional theme?
