you'll note that some of the #! forum members trying out BBQ are, in fact, moderators here.
I am impressed with the builds and have been happily testing them.
So let's see some scrots from the mods tasting bbq flavors...

Want Waldorf, but with sid and systemd? Try Darkside.

Thanks.
Fred's theme has a GTK3 file as well. I haven't looked at it yet, but it can't be too difficult to hack- I just need to change a couple of colour values.

+1 Corenominal's response about freedom about posting images of their desired distros.
No doubt creating stuff is hard, but continuing to maintain it and follow that passion is even harder. Trashing one's aspirations doesn't take much, but nurturing it requires a lot of determination and a rocksteady mindset. I fully support the intelligent and creative minds behind LinuxBBQ as they are a force to reckon with.
@machinebacon
If I had known that the place was going to be the foundation of a new distro, I would not have requested all of those frivolous things and riled up the community. As much as I would love to test those builds out, I wonder if you would approve of me doing such a thing and providing constructive feedback. :sigh: If only I was there to see the builds released. By the way, will there ever be a spin of linuxbbq with a tiling window manager? Again, I applaud you and the team for being awesome at what you do and wish you all a bright future.
Anyway, here's my shot after being gone from the community for...two months or so. Lots of stuff went down in real life.

I'll post my Xfce screens both here and at the BBQ later today

Sure thing, they are based on themes by half-left. The shell, window and matching GTK2 and GTK3 themes, olive selected background color...
http://www.mediafire.com/file/8b647rrto … sic.tar.gzThe gtk with teal selected background color...

Thanks hhh for this!
I love #! more than my own kids. I told them and they sympathized.

I too have / was less frequent for awhile. Had no idea all the stuff that went on. Hopefully time will help mend any riffs.
Looking forward to joining the BBQ forums and checking out the scene. Kind of reminds me of when I was skateboarding, members of a top team would break out create their own. Like H-Street -> PlanB, then down the road PlanB -> Girl. If you skated at all, you'll know the reference. So yes, the talent pool of BBQ is like that of Girl.
screenshot thread is showing off some creativity and art, etc, independent of what the distro is. Keep 'em coming.

Frank, in order to save you some work, here's the original themes I based them on:

Getting the right background colour and highlight colour for selected menu items hasn't been a problem, but so far I can't work out how to get the menu background a light colour while keeping the menu bar dark- they seem to be linked. I'm seen them a different colour in one GTK3 theme at least at gnome-look.org, so I'll have to download a few other themes and see if I can work out how they do it.

^ glad to see another Pekwm user
(they seem to be sparse?!?)
Yes, they certainly do. I've only recently started using it but it seems to have a lot of potential for customization so I'm pretty intrigued thus far.

It's the one from fredbird67's post:

The line that changes text colour in the menubar and menu is the second .menuitem here (currently set to black).
/************
* menuitem *
************/
.menuitem {
color: @theme_selected_fg_color;
}
.menuitem {
padding: 3px;
border-radius: 0;
text-shadow: none;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 0;
color: #000000;
background-image: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@theme_selected_bg_color, 1.0)),
to (shade (@theme_selected_bg_color, 0.85)));
-unico-bullet-color: @dark_fg_color;
}There are sections for menu, menubar and menubaritem, and I've tried changing the colours in all of the entries. Nothing else seems to affect text colour; certainly nothing I've tried lets me set the colour independently in the menubar and the menu.
But I know nothing about how this file is supposed to work, CSS or theme writing, and am just randomly thrashing about.

What colour are you wanting the menu and text to be ? I'm no expert but i've recently been doing the same to one of themes, so i can do a bit of changing around and see if get lucky

You have defined the color for the .menuitem twice, I think that's interfering and falling back to the default (black). Remove the first .menuitem part and change the second color: to the one you have defined in the first. If you don't get what I mean then upload the theme somewhere and I'll have a go at it. Without the complete code, I can't test it myself.

Menu text is fine in the screenshot- black on white- but the menubar is dark grey so black is barely readable- text needs to be white.
Thanks and good luck!

Hey, don't feel offended
I know there's a lot of themes that are based on (usually, poorly written) other gtk-widgets. When I ported my favorite GTK2 theme to GTK3 I also based it on a poorly written one and ended up starting from scratch with a proper gtk-widgets. If you want, you could use my theme as a base since it's not as complicated and/or poorly written. EDIT: It might be harder though, since my theme is "flat" and the theme you want is not so you'll have to change more than just the colors.
When I can get the complete theme, I'll have a look.
