The base icewm theme is your excellent antiX default. I noticed that it worked very well with the Dust Aurora theme...very complementary colors. Dust Aurora is included in the"Extra GTK Themes 0.2" package at

. I really like the overall look and function but there are a few tweaks I may make if I stay with this combo very long. If you try it out give me your take on things.

I had trouble with the Dust themes that rely on the Murrine engine. Never could get it worked out so used Dust Aurora which obviously is designed for the Aurora engine. I had no trouble installing the Aurora engine and found a deb at:

They are a little"gnomish" but I like the colors and variety and they are working very well at this point.

I'm also using a Trebuchet font.

The main thing I really like is the way the Dust theme works with the color of the default antiX IceWM theme. They almost look like they were made for each other. Kind of like the peanut butter and chocolate of a Reese's candy bar. __{{emoticon}}__ I also like the stock icons with Dust. The icons look very well with the default iceweasel as well as in this little screenshot.

It's a very nice look, impuwat!

By the way I failed to mention that it looked like you were using a Dust GTK theme in your last screenshot. I think we were looking at the same thing except I took the aurora engine route instead of murrine. The link is dead on your post telling what GTK you were using but I'm sure we were on the same path. Great minds think alike....or the reverse thereof __{{emoticon}}__

Thanks Mariel! But, as I said, I think John and I are looking at the same tree....we are just on different branches. Which is why I had to post the screenshot and give John another possibility to bang his head on. __{{emoticon}}__

And it worked. I remember trying to ape the look of the first mint fluxbox release on earlier versions of antix. Here is a second attempt, although the icewm version. Thanks for jogging my memory impuwat.
