GTK is 3.10 now. Please to be including support for integrated window decorations. Also, every time I apply this theme, everything in GTK3 apps turns completely green. Gtk2 looks good tho.

Now it's fixed. And you asked for integrated decorations; yes it supports integrated decorations, such as GTK 3.x decorator in Ubuntu 14.04 (Unity) and many more.

Thanks for your effort, but I still have issues.

- All GTK3 apps now turn dark gray
- There are no drop shadows for GTK3 apps
- Is there no window decoration included with this theme?

Not sure what you fixed, but here's a screenshot of what I get when try this:

As you can see, it looks nothing like your screenshot, there are no shadows (so windows are indistinguishable), there are no available window borders with this theme, it's called "Xfce 8" for some reason even though it's supposed to be a Windows 8 clone, and the colors are all wrong.
