Description

http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Aurora+Gtk+Engine?content=56438

it's so awesome. :] I think it should at the very least be in repos, but I think it'd be awesome if we could include a theme using it as an option in the Appearance dialog.

Yes it is indeed the best theme for GNOME I've ever seen.

This is anawesome theme and I used it for a while. It seems to make things run slower though. Perhaps some research is needed in this area?

Should be default for Ubuntu because it has personality.

Indeed few glitches on Open Office widgets but hey ...is a monumental theme.

Also, run slow for few peoples - need research and Help for the designer from the community or why not ...from Ubuntu crew side. I think he's pretty busy on daytime.

I agree, very very nice looking theme. This might just be able to replace the default ubuntu theme with some recoloring and adjustments

repos=good.

default=bad.

It is too slow, and imho the scroll bar quality is not polished enough.

Agree, this is the best gtk+ theme I have ever seen, and combinded with 'blended' or 'blendish with a cherry on top' metacity themes look even better.
Must be in the repos.
And also agree should be default.

It is hacky.

While Aurora Gtk Engine is rather nice looking, you just try opening up gedit and typing in something you will notice that even typing text is slower....
