Spice up ubuntu desktop with a new theme


Lets be honest, the default Ambiance theme is too depressing and I am tired of Human/Clearlooks that we have used for years.

There are many themes available here: www.gnome-look.org

One of the best themes I have found is Equinox Evolution theme.

It goes really well with Nautilus elementary. Here is a screenshot of what the theme looks like with nautilus elementary.






If you want to try it out, Copy paste the following commands in Terminal:

Add theme and nautilus elementary PPAs. 

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiheum/equinox
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:am-monkeyd/nautilus-elementary-ppa

Update apt 

sudo apt-get update

Install Equinox Evolution theme 

sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-equinox equinox-theme faenza-icon-theme

Go to System > Preferences > Appearance and select "Equinox Evolution Light" Install Nautilus Elementary

sudo apt-get install nautilus nautilus-data nautilus-open-terminal nautilus-actions

Restart nautilus

nautilus -q

Thats it, Enjoy the new theme.
