Thank you for this screenshot, this is exactly what we need in order  
to polish the dapper artwork in details.

The rightmost window is far better than the left one. Is the progress  
bar using exactly the same color as titlebar ? I feel like it  
doesn't. Using exactly the same color as titlebar both for progress  
bar, Check, Radio, slider, buttons, scrollbars and other i may forgot  
would be great.

I like scrollbars. I'm thinking about using more caramel for  
scrollbars. A bit like OS X does. Just for a try.
You are welcome!
No it is not the color of the titlebar, nor is it the orange color used by other widgets. The progressbar in the engine manipulates the color specified in the gtkrc so I had to come up with a color. Just a quick one, and it is too saturated, but I was just trying to see what it looks like.

The scrollbars are strange when colored, again because of how the engine manipulates the color specified.

I liked the color combo in Human/ubuntulooks-0.9.6

but the bright orange was brought back in 0.9.9, and IMO the theme no longer flows.

Since you also like themes of single selection color maybe you'll enjoy these
