I'm far from asking you to spoon feed me. I know nothing about Gnome3, I've only recently started using it, and so far I've found the documentation sorely lacking in areas related to configuration and personalisation. Since you know more than I do, and you provided the link to the blog post I thought it reasonable to also ask you if there's a resource available that explains how to do this sort of personalisation on a per-user basis. > The proper way to do that would be to create a new theme based on the > default one and use that new theme to make the changes. I think (though I do > not know) that themes are per user. Thank you, that paragraph nicely sums up what I asked for. Seriously, I could have done without your attitude in the two previous paragraphs. /M -- Magnus Therning           ÂOpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@xxxxxxxxxxxx  jabber: magnus@xxxxxxxxxxxx twitter: magthe        http://therning.org/magnus _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
