[SOLVED] GTK programs reverting to odd styling templates

After a few updates, the GTK programs I use (GIMP, Chrome) reset to a really strange Windows 200-ish, very ugly setting, and aren't taking style cues from my KDE settings like they used to. I have updated to KDE 4.8, am running Linux Min 12 KDE, and have been applying small updates when the list gets long, so every 4-5 days. I have tried to adjust the GTK+ style settings within the Application Appearance menu, but the options don't seem to affect the problem.

Is there something I installed or updated that I might be able to revert back to the Mint default, or something I could edit?

Thanks.

This was a beautifully amazingly quick fix. Thank you so much!

Out of curiosity, what changed?

Worked for me too...thanks! Please include it in Mint 13 KDE if the issue still exists in KDE 4.8 :)
