I didn't make the gtk2 theme, I ported it to gtk3, and I don't have enough knomledge of gtk2 themeing to make tabs like that.
If you still want to have tabs like that, you can open gtk-widgets.css and replace lines 1099-1159 with this
/************
* notebook *
************/
.notebook {
background-color: shade (@bg_color, 1.02);
background-image: none;
border-radius: 3;
padding: 3;
-unico-inner-stroke-color: alpha (shade (@bg_color, 1.26), 0.3);
-unico-inner-stroke-gradient: none;
}
.notebook tab {
background-image: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@bg_color, 0.97)),
color-stop (0.80, shade (@bg_color, 0.95)),
to (shade (@bg_color, 0.92)));
padding: 2 1 0 1;
-unico-border-gradient: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@bg_color, 0.86)),
to (shade (@bg_color, 0.84)));
-unico-inner-stroke-color: alpha (shade (@bg_color, 1.26), 0.34);
-unico-inner-stroke-gradient: none;
-unico-inner-stroke-width: 1;
-unico-outer-stroke-color: @transparent;
-unico-outer-stroke-gradient: none;
-unico-outer-stroke-width: 1;
}
.notebook tab:active {
background-image: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@bg_color, 1.1)),
to (shade (@bg_color, 1.02)));
-unico-border-gradient: -gtk-gradient (linear, left top, left bottom,
from (shade (@bg_color, 0.84)),
to (shade (@bg_color, 0.8)));
}
.notebook tab .button {
padding: 0;
}

About the changes, I've been working on this again and I've made some changes like icon size, button size and hover states, message tray etc. Not so sure about the font size though, you can increase it if you prefer, it's only css :).
I'm also making some other changes like nicer images for highlighted activities etc. I'll update it in a few days. :)
Sorry for replying so late :P - Dec 04 2011

Actually the line under the menubar is done as a gradient(with percentage position values). I'll do it again using pixel values(or a pixmap maybe.. :)) - Jul 13 2011

reduce titlebar font size by 1 unit.
For panel font-size, u have to edit in the css. Find 9pt and replace it with 10pt or such.. :) - Jul 09 2011

*You should remove the separator(try -GtkPaned-handle-size:0;)
*Menubar to toolbar tansition should be somewhat smoother or else partitioned.
*Toolbar buttons need some love.
Its good to see more gtk3 themes coming up.. :) - Jun 28 2011

n yea i didnt make the gtk2 version, n unfortunately i'm not familier with gtk2 themeing, so no props there bro.. - May 24 2011
2. The tabs in nautilus are due to nautilus. The width and the close button's offset isn't controlled b y the theme, so it'll unfortunately remain that way.
3. Some styles like buttons are different. It's because of the limitations of the themeing engine. The buttons in the gtk2 version are drawn using murrine, while i just have css in gtk3, that leaves me just with gradients. I cant exactly replicate thecomplex gradient in those murrine button with gradients alone, n using images is out of the question, because they stretch.. n yea, i cant remove those stripes from the progressbars..
I am happy that someone is taking time to point out my mistakes. This is my first theme and i'm happy that people like it. Please tell me if u find any other glitches, i'll try to rectify them.. :) :) have a nice day.. :) - May 23 2011
