Add a new theme?

Post by DapperMe17 »

Hello,

I recently downloaded three seperate gtk2 themes from the Mint-art webpage.

I unpacked them all, then moved them to the /usr/share/themes folder.

However, none of the three appear anywhere in the "User Interface" list, or in the "Window Manger" list.

What's up?

Ok sorry for the wait, must have gotten sidetracked.
All three GTK themes worked here.
I right click extract here and copied and pasted the folder in /usr/share/themes/
They all showed up in User Interface like the were suppose to.

/usr/share/themes/Carbonfibre/gtk-2.0

Had to extract another file inside and the theme forgot to use green for the window color.
Had a metacity theme in it so that won't work.
/usr/share/themes/Deepgreen/gtk-2.0
