Ubuntu :: Chane ONLY Icon Themes, Not Panel Themes?
Aug 6, 2010
I would like to install a new icon theme without effecting my currently selected panel theme, as i think the Ambience panel theme looks really nice and unified but im not too keen on the Ubuntu-Mono icons.Is this easily possible, without going into my icon folders and replacing all the instances of one style for another?Are there any applications for gnome icon theming like OS X's Candybar?Im sure others must desire to change only the icons and perhaps it is really easy and this is why i couldnt dig anythin up on google, that or im a useless googler.

Since of late "Appearance preference" behaves awkwardly . Normaly It is supposed to show themes in /usr/share/themes right? but now it shows themes only in ~/.themes folder. I don't know what affected the change. how do I configure it as to show themes in /usr/share/themes/,?
Also whatever theme I use , Controls would stay same(Classic controls). They wouldn't be update to those of the Theme used.

Are there any iphone-like icon theme for gnome besides faenza? If there isn't, is there a way I can take the ones that are on the iphone? As a last resort I would like a template and create the icons myself.

I just did install the updates as they showed up with the Update manager, and now the themes are "broken." On startup, all windows are themed with the Redmond theme. When I open the Appearance dialog, some windows' theme come back. But nautilus still uses the Redmond theme (I'm not running it as root either). The icon theme is totally not taking effect. It's using the ugly gray icons regardless of what I have chosen. This all happened right after the latest update on Karmic, and after I've reinstalled my NVidia driver which breaks after every kernel update. I think it was a kernel update because the number of lines at the grub menu seemed to have increased.

When you go to System/Preferences/Appearance/ and the Appearance Preferences window displays the graphical representations of the themes, on most of them the gnome image-missing.png is displayed where the window menu icon (far-left on the titlebar) should be displayed. I never had this happen with Intrepid, but I do have this situation now on Jaunty. It's not just with new or added themes, it's the system's default installed themes as well. If you search around the net you'll see that this is a pretty common problem. Is a .png getting deleted, or is it something else in the process that is 'broken'?
Many of my apps display their proper menu window icons (like nautilus, ff3, etc.) - but others do not. I assume the ones that don't are trying to use a system or default icon rather than their own and that it is missing?Here are two screenshots I grabbed off of google to show you the difference.Missing...Not missing.

I have become very restless and irritated while trying to change the icon next to the applications tab on my top panel (I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Desktop). I've tried multiple methods and have had no luck. I've used the Ubuntu Tweak option for changing the icon. It didn't work. I've attempted taking my custom one and changing it in the directory itself but I can't figure out how to change the permissions to allow me to do this.
I've used the terminal to replace the icons but once again I was not given permission. I've spent hours trying and trying to get this to work and I'm stumped. Now to note the problem of this only being for a certain theme. I changed the theme from my custom theme (the one I want to change that icon for) to the Ambiance theme. I opened up Ubuntu Tweak and tried using the simple icon changer button...it worked. I had just d/led updates for it so I switched back to my custom theme to try it and nothing.
Extra:
The custom theme I'm using is this
Controls: snow-leopard-mac (i don't remember where i d/led this)
Colors: N/A
Window Border: Mac4Lin_GTK_Aqua_v1.0
Icons: Mac4Lin_Icons_v1.0
Pointer: Default

Seems many icon themes still don't really play nice with gnome shell. They work totally fine for the most part, except the tray icons, they like to change them to their own monochrome icons which usually look bad (and most of the time not even all of them are changed). Is there a way to make any icon theme use the default gnome shell symbolic icons? Right now I am using elementary and its mostly fine, but it changed the battery icon to an ugly smaller version. I'd love to be able to change it to the default icon.

I've got everything installed so far that I need and everything is customized down to the boot splash and the mouse theme. I'm using fluxbox on the newest debian (5.0.3). But for some reason I just CANT change the default icons theme for gtk apps like thunar. I've installed the gnome icons theme and that one works fine.
I've tried editing ~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine as well as ~/.gtkrc-2.0 by add the line gtk-icon-theme-name="theme" but it just doesn't work even after doing a restart. I've also tried putting the icons folder under /usr/share/icons as well as ~/.icons but still nothing...

I don't know what happened here, but running debian lenny and all of a sudden my icon theme is rodent, a decent chunk of icons are not showing up, and when I go to the icon changing panel they all look the same - like rodent! Icon themes I put in ~/.icons don't show up, and the icons in /usr/share/icons are permission as such:
root:root

Is there a way to edit the themes in Ubuntu with more control then with the Customize feature? Customize lets you change the all the icons and folder icons to a particular set of icons but does not allow you to individually specify what icons to use for folders and file icons and what icons to use for the icons on the top launch panel that are on the right side of the panel by default like the Bluetooth Icon, UPS Battery status icon temperature and current condition icon in the calendar. Older versions of Ubuntu gave the user more control over how the launch panel looked, I thought I remembered an option to use 3-D icons on the launch panel in older versions of Ubuntu.

On my laptop, I have stable installed. The original install was about two years ago, and I've just been keeping up with all of the stable updates. It is now an up to date Lenny. Over the months and years I have added several new icon themes to Gnome. I have noticed over time that several of the icon themes' icons have turned up missing. To see what I'm talking about take a look at the screen shots here: [URL]
Screenshot-2 is a closeup.
As you can see, icon themes Amaranth, Crux and Dropline Etiquette are missing their respective theme icons. The icon themes work, when selected, but the icon theme icon in the "Customize Theme" window never appears. Several of the other icon themes are the same. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the icon theme packs, but that doesn't fix it. I also have a desktop system of Debian stable with some of the same icon themes as on the laptop, but it does not have this problem. However, it is a much newer installation.

I installed Debian Squeeze with Gnome today. I'm unable to change from the default icon theme. I can change themes, but the icon theme remains default.Things I've tried:
- I've made a new user account.
- .gtkrc-2.0 in my home is auto-generated, .gtkrc.mine does not exist.
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT include "/usr/share/themes/Darklooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" include "/home/haunted/.gtkrc.mine"
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
- I've tried installing a theme into my /home/.themes.
- I've reinstalled gnome-settings-daemon.
- Tried changing themes then doing a full reboot.
- Cursed it periodically.

Is there a way to fix this. I know once a theme is applied it's suppose to take affect on everything. But, my folders (and the stuff that you see below, folders and icons etc..) stay the same no matter what theme I use

I want to theme my Ubuntu. I have heard that Emerald is good for this, but I just don't understand how to use it.
There is a theme there already called "Beryl Red" (I assume it's a default), but there is no button to install or use it.

But I am becoming very annoyed by the fact that I cannot customize/change my Login window in Ubuntu 11.04.
It's not soo much the fact that I can't get it to look the way I want.. But the fact that the options arent even available/ won't even work anymore.
(Brilliant idea whoever thought of removing it!)
I am not asking how to change the login screen background (wallpaper) I already know how to do that, and have it changed to what I want.
I need to do one of 2 things, (or both)
1. Change the login theme to something nicer. (like you used to be able to do with GDM2setup). ~The actual login window/box is what I want to change.
or
2. Change the current (plain, boxy, white) login window so that it is transparent.
I've seriously been looking around for at least a week on and off, and there is no solution for 11.04 users that I can find.
I keep seeing all over the place. "How to change Ubuntu 11.04 login screen/theme" etc, Yet all those sites are useless, as all they mention is "Ubuntu Tweak" to change the background and "ubuntu logo"..
As stated, I already know this , and how to do it.. So Ubuntu tweak is not what I need here.
How freaking difficult does it have to be to customize something soo simple? I thought this was LINUX. You know, where you can customize all of your stuff, the way you want it? Not have to be stuck with things the way the developers thought it "should be".
There is this "new app" called SLiM" that can supposedly do this, But it breaks everyones system on 11.04, So that idea is shot.
