Right now I'm fighting with panels. There are two problems with them;
 - The buttons on the panels are beige, instead of blending in with the
panels.
 - The Applications-Places-System use the wrong background, they should look
like the rest of the panel.

Everything can be downloaded at the WIki now. The GTK itself is a bit of a
piece-together, so I apologize for how messy it is.

The different background on the applications/places/system doesn't look bad,
it just wasn't the original intent. Great job on the panel buttons though!
Looks much slicker! I'm toiling away on the Metacity theme (I'm winging half
of this stuff, so I'm a bit slower than I should be).

Anywho, if you want to run rampant and go though the GTK, there's some other
known bugs posted on the Wiki - you seem to know more of what you're doing,
and it would be much appreciated since I have about 4 things on the go. ;)

Great stuff! Thank you!

I used a TRANSPARENT MENUBAR on the panel when i created a pixmap theme 
with inverted panels. i know that most themes just have the same image 
file for both the menubar and the panel itself, but that can get messy 
because the panel and the menubar have different resizing behaviors (due 
to panel theming restrictions).
i guess the transparency solution can be used for other panel stuff like 
applets as well. so here it is (sorry for the weird layout, this is an 
old one):



style panel = default-inverted
{
xthickness = 0
ythickness = 0
bg_pixmap[NORMAL]=panel.png#unfortunately this 
is the only way we can get a pixmap to be the panel bg
}

#

style panel-menubar = default-inverted
{
 engine pixmap {
  image {
function= BOX
file= transparent.png#transparent menubar 
to let the panel look through, this could also be used for panel applets
border= { 0, 0, 0, 0 }
stretch= TRUE
}
}}


style panel-menubar-item = default-inverted
{
 engine pixmap {
  image {
function= BOX
file= panel-button-in_prelight.png#selected 
menubar item will look like a pressed panel button
border= { 5, 5, 5, 5 }
stretch= TRUE
}
}}

#

style panel-button = default-inverted
{
xthickness = 2
 engine pixmap {
  image {
function= BOX
state= NORMAL
file= panel-button-out.png
border  = { 5, 5, 5, 5 }
stretch = TRUE
}
  image {
function= BOX
shadow  = OUT
state= PRELIGHT
file= panel-button-out_prelight.png
border  = { 5, 5, 5, 5 }
stretch = TRUE
}
  image {
function= BOX
state= ACTIVE
file= panel-button-in.png
border  = { 5, 5, 5, 5 }
stretch = TRUE
}
  image {
function= BOX
shadow  = IN
state= PRELIGHT
file= panel-button-in_prelight.png
border  = { 5, 5, 5, 5 }
stretch = TRUE
}
}}

 the layout from my previous mail turned out even more twisted than in my

I suggest staying away from the panel transparency as it doesn't work with all

rgba support going across gtk and the panel and system-tray :-/

my post was not about panel transparency. the panel in my example is not 
transparent at all,

i simply provided a solution for the panel-menubar 
(=Application-Places-System) to be consistent with the panel by making 
the *menubar* transparent with an empty pixmap (the whole thing only 
applies to pixmap themes). this solution is more accurate than using the 
same image for both because of the different resizing modes that i 
mentioned in my previous post.

that was what Ken Vermette asked for, i think. hope that explains. by 
the way, does anyone know another solution?

 Things that are done include the firefox fix (but not a full theme),
 emerald, modified Metacity theme (looks similar to the origional dust),
 Avant navigator theme, Dark KithKin wallpaper, and the GTK (newest Murrine
 version, panels still under work).

 Things en route include customized cursors (similar to DMZ-Black), a true
 firefox theme, more fixes (Openoffice, mainly), panel themes and KDE colour
 sets.

 Things down the road (provided I get some rubber on the road) will be
 custom login and bootsplash images.

 Just a question, is your firefox theme going to fix the bookmarks toolbar
 as well? Just curious, because your screenshot is missing the it. I'm using
 Dust right now and I modified the userChrome.css to fix most of the issues I
 have except for the bookmarks toolbar.

 The navigation bar and bookmarks toolbars will be dark-text-on-light, so no
 fixing will be necessary. The firefox theme will primarily tweak the tabs,
 keeping the rest of the theme simple and free of potential bugs.
