Upd.: That stuff with the dock was my own mistake, but there's still a problem with the Nautilus sidebar. - Feb 05 2019

Telinkrin- Arrongin themes

GTK3/4 Themes by paulxfce 327 comments

I love that Telinkrin theme, but there's a huge problem with Nautilus. "Unmount" icons for devices in the left bar just got out of it and they're in the middle of the window. Also I really wish for gradient theme with window cotrol buttons on left.

Also I've installed this theme for the Shell, and here's another problem: the dock is dark, which looks not very suitable, and there are not any indication for windows that are already opened, this is a bit distracting.

Thanks for this theme anyway. - Feb 04 2019

And I forgot one thing - try not to use serif fonts, they absolutely are not fit to interfaces. - Jan 31 2019

And yes, as an enthusiast, I really want Linux to look cool and modern, but... It's not. Really, most of the themes are just outdated or copying something, but everyone (except me, maybe) are fine with it. I know that matter stands above manner, but it is not the reason to neglect visual form at all.
And I would like to do something with it, but I have some problems with my visual imagination, like I can roughly imagine what I like to see, but I never could portray or even explain it in full details. - Jan 31 2019

I wasn't really in the mood to write something, but as you took your time to write all that response, so I will take mine to explain what I meant. I hope you'll be able to read through my "perfect" grammar, I'm doing my best to improve it.

So. For months I am looking for new aesthetic experiences in Linux. I tried multiple DEs, lots and lots of themes, but I always encounter a problem with look. Most of themes are just copies of Mac OS main theme, they are rather handsome, but it is boring. Some of them are copies of something else, like Win10 or Adwaita with minor improvements.

But some of them are obsolete. You know, the interface design is a rather dynamic thing, everything is changing every year, and maybe (just maybe) it's some kind of trend addiction from me, but I prefer interface design to be contemporary and fresh. And this particular theme uses lots of gradients, which was interesting like ten years ago, but now they're completely obsolete.

Also I really concerned about open source community positive attitude about everything. I know, that one-word-criticism like mine is not very helpful, but so do constant praising of everything. It's like comments on Jamendo, when you hear poor composing and terrible mixing, but everyone in the comments are saying something like "Woah, that's GREAT". It's really an obstacle in self improvement.

So what about tips. Firstly, I thing you should get rid of gradients in future. Maybe for some people it looks cool, but really it's mostly tasteless nowadays. Secondly, continue the work of improvement. Learn about interface design, look at distinctive parts of existing interfaces everywhere, mention them to yourself, but try not to copy whole themes. Experiment, improvise, do something new to make Linux look cool and not what it looks like now. Good luck.

P.S.: I wasn't aware that it was your first release, sorry. In that case criticism can be really discouraging. - Jan 31 2019
