Nice, I like the blur, very pleasant color combo and fonts. How does a GTK app look like in this setup?

[dkeg]

Thank you sir!

Here you go. Always match the curtains and drapes

[machinebacon]

^ oh wow, thanks for the proof. Heavy CSS-ing/userstyles, I suppose :D

[dkeg]

noper. I just make change the .gtkrc to match the current term bg color. I like the 'white' so I generally leave it. Just a quick 'cp -r .themes/old-theme/ .themes/newtheme' then

Code: Select all

:%s /#oldbg/#newbg/g

save and done!
I'm working on an automated method, so when I change my xcolors, .gtkrc-2.0, will update automatically so I can just use a base theme that changes on the fly instead of having

Code: Select all

bark/     bshine/   designr/  fury/    ice/      mattdv3/    prevail/  schredd/   squares/
blumune/  corners/  faint/    haze/    leaf/     openbox-3/  rosa/     shinr/    sncp/           
brtr/     depth/    flatte/   hoppes/  mattdv2/  poly/       scag/     solarized_dark/  victory/

Oh sorry, I meant the forums -- but now I remember we even have a white theme there.

The gtkrc thing is cool. I once tried to create CSS from Xresources, this would then force the browser to follow your general theme.

(http://linuxbbq.org/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1081 maybe you remember)

Haven't played with gtk for a long time - it would really be nice to have a 'one-click' solution to change everything.

^^ I haven't even touched mine care to share a sample ?

[dkeg]

Yes, of course I remember! I like this forum theme. I also like to keep the contrast, where I'm integrating xcolor consistently 'softly' in gtk apps.

It is my last piece of the fully integrated, xcolor wise, ricing puzzle. I have the solution in mind, just need to do it.

^^ I haven't even touched mine care to share a sample ?

unp and cd to .gtkrc. Open the .gtkrc in vim and

Code: Select all

:%s /#1a1a18/#yourtermbgcolor/g

then rename the file as you wish. Apply the theme through either

Code: Select all

.gtkrc-2.0
or
.gtkrc-2.0.mine

[ChefIronBelly]

Thanks for that will take a look maybe do something with my browser.

Fantastic Drew and some nice ideas.

[dkeg]

Here you go!. The thread links to my github. Check it out!

• awk, cut, and loop through color values in base gtk theme, dumping color values to tmp file
  place contents of tmp file into an array
  sed replace current base gtk color values from the array with new values from current xcolors
  rm tmp file

I think I have all the puzzle pieces done.

[dkeg]

colors are leaf, with a new darker bg and red

webm of gtkColor. magtk is an alias for xrdb load and gtkColor

[wuxmedia]

^ gorgeous, as normal - hard day at work eh? ;)

[machinebacon]

Lovely - though, I am missing the greens a bit. Generally it seems to me that Drew isn't the *big* greens fan :)

[dkeg]

^ yes, greens and yellows are the hardest to get right. For you MB, I made the green more green, and less yellow. You likey? Edit: but hell, the bg is green!

^ yes yes, that's the way uh-oh-uh-ah I like it uh-oh-uh-ah :) Actually it looks a tiny bit like a worn Tango
scheme, really nice!

Edit: blame my shitty screen, I generally set it dark and with low contrast... looks much different on the phone

[dkeg]

^ Thanks!
here you go!

Thank you! Here's the fbcolors:
