the maximized_unfocused frame-style could really benefit from with an addon of "" or to use normal_unfocused as parent with the changes in the maximize-button instead. As it is now, maximized windows titlebars have the same colour as focused titlebars (and that is annoying).

This is excellent theme! I've modified it only slightly to have a darker look to match my overall Gtk+ theme, and added rounded corners:

If you look in the xml file (in my case ~/.themes/Sloth /metacity-1) named metacity-theme-1.xml, there are two lines (108 && 129) that need to be reversed to switch the focus/unfocused color scheme.

108: <draw_ops name="tint2">
--should become <draw_ops name="tint">
129: <draw_ops name="tint">
--should become <draw_ops name="tint2">

Hope this helps someone.

very nice, i love it

As already reported by another user, the theme would benefit from getting the focused and unfocused title bar colours swapped. Nice theme though.

No, wait. Sloth goes best with MistoLatte. I call the combination MistoSloth.

Sloth users don't hack. I'm surprise they even post!

I like the focus color. My advice is to pick an application theme that matches the focused color. I'm using whiteplate (even though I don't like the icons it uses).

If I defy the odds (for a sloth) and figure out how to hack it, I'm going to remove the bottom_edge.

NICE window theme, GraemeWorthy. It's my favorite. As a sloth, I'm sure you think you're done. GET to WORK on the matching application theme!

licivee,
I hereby deputise you with the job of swapping the focused and unfocused title bar colours.

here's a tutorial.
go hack.

Cool theme!

Can the title bar colours be customized? The focused and unfocused title bar colours should be swapped (so the focused titlebar is darker, it looks like it is greyed out (i.e. disabled) otherwise.

Really nice! Now I am looking for an Application-themes (for the controls) that´s as simple and clean as the window border theme is. Any suggestions?
