Good Grey 1.1 released with a couple of fixes and additions.

Changes since 1.0

� Made menus slightly transparent
� Corrected the position of sliders and made them simpler
� Removed brownish menus on Graphite color variation
� Added a black variation to the theme



Go get it at http://www.cepophan.com/themes

Naw, sorry I wasnt... although thats not a half bad idea, tell us how it works out... I was actually talking to the guy above you. He was having trouble with the colored widgets.

Happy St. Patrics day to you too!

Hmm, ya, oh well. I really seem to like high contrast themes. I modded Milk so it was even higher contrast once. Really black menus

yeah i agree.. i would like to see more black accents to provide more contrast as opposed to the few black accents as it stands now.... the more contrast the better!
peace.

Is it just me, or is new version 1.1 still not online? All I see is version 1.0

Downloaded the file, and it still says 1.0...

I get the new version... Maybe its taking the site from your cache? Try reloading it (which Im sure a smart guy like you already has, so I dont have much other to say than that...)

Great theme! Actually made me switch from AquaPro for a while.

What icons go best with this theme? Orbital? I'm looking for some nice flat grey icons. Anyone got any ideas?

I like the G5 system icon replacement set from Icon Factory. Looks pretty sweet with this theme.

Yeah, I'm using a modified version of G5 System. I replaced the toolbar icons with the TiSystem toolbar icons. The TiSystem toolbar icons are perfect, but the rest of the set's color is off a bit. A little on the blue side. But G5 System icons color hue is closer to Good Grey's palette (IMO). I am going to make my own set based on the TiSystem's toolbar icons. When I find the time, that is.
