Changing Gnome 3 theme/Apperance

[Jetso]

Okay, so I installed Fedora 15 beta today. I have changed the background, but It still looks too... Original. Is there anyway to chance some of the colors of the panels and such? Also, is there a gconf-editor? I can't seem to find one. It's been a while since I've used it so I might be doing something wrong.

you can install gnome-tweak and change few themes and icons there.

Ah, thank you. I'm new to this so your help is appreciated!

Okay, so I tried that. Some of the stuff is useful, but what about changing the color scheme and stuff?

they are woking on it, man! The total gnome 3 code is new from scratch.so it shall take some time for developers to add some new icons and themes.Gnome3 is biggest UI change in the last 10 years of gnome.

I'm workin' on it. But at this point in time, it's all about applying Rahul's extensions ... and then hacking the 'ell out of the Adwaita metacity-theme.3 xml file and the Adwaita css file.



Most of that is based on the information gleaned here: http://blog.fpmurphy.com/2011/03/cus...e-3-shell.html

OH, SHINY. Nice. I'll play around with them, just the colors and such.
