Simply Choice 1.0 Linux Desktop Theme

May 23, 2011 Category: Linux Desktop Themes

This is a new theme I've been working on called Simply Choice 1.0. Its mostly based of a couple of prevoius themes I've done "Simply Basic" and "Simply Basic II". There are two versions of this theme included “Simply Choice” and “Simply Choice Global”. The first is the standard version that most people will use and the other is for people using a global menu. For instance the new Unity interface introduced in the latest release of Ubuntu 11.04 uses a global menu. Either version can be used but the “Simply Choice Global” version will have a smoother look and feel if using a global menu.

Before installing the new themes you must first install the Equinox engine. All you have to do is run three simple commands in the terminal.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiheum/equinox
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-equinox

Now that you've run the three commands download and install the theme. Enjoy!

Thank you for your your great theme. They save a lot of space, very good colors and widgets. I've been waiting so long for such nice refinements.

Pacman is the package manager of Arch linux. Never mind I moved to Ubuntu : )
