digit's crunchbang inspired gtk2 themes

http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=153915

kinda says it all in the description on the gnome-look page for it.

though i will add here... it feels rather peculiar, that it's taken me this long to upload some crunchbang-inspired themes.   shoulda done this ages ago. 

feedback welcome.  lemme know if you like em, or which are your faves, or which you dont like.  lemme know if any of them throw up any problems anywhere for you.   thanks.

Re: digit's crunchbang inspired gtk2 themes

What font?

I love the just-off-black theme in the bottom-left of your posted shot.

EDIT:  I haven't tried any of your themes yet, but from past experience I expect people might have some difficulty with the darkest theme, since the notebook widgets disappear with the background at 000 in practically all gtk2 engines besides Industrial, High Contrast, and Crux.

Re: digit's crunchbang inspired gtk2 themes

thnx for that little insight. (Industrial, High Contrast, and Crux.)

idk what the notebook widgets are that you speak of, but i know there are such issues from time to time elsewhere, particularly with dark text entry boxes where some other wise guy has decided to make his not use the gtk theme for font, making it black, but using the gtk theme for the background.

the font, part of some startrek pack of fonts.  not important to the theme.    wish i'd had something like progsole on when i took those scrots now.   ^_^   just been on a startrek whim recently, averting my usutal utilitarian design ethos.

Actually, your theme/engine set does well with the notebook widgets (basically, these are the borders around the tabs...I guess these are named notebook widgets because of the tabbed dividers sometimes found in 3-ring binders), but note how the black rectangle, the spinbutton field, and the dropdown field disappear in the theme on the top left.

I shoulda noticed the name of the font in the scrots.
