[ubuntu-art] gtk theme

[xl cheese]

It seems as though these comments are based on an older version of clearlooks.  You will need to the latest clearlooks version for some of the items to be fixed. The gtkrc is calling variables that do not exist in the old versions.  See comments below.
 
!!!!  = Easy Fix
***  = Can't fix.  Needs gtk-engine code change

!!!! Sounds like an out dated version.
>    - gradient buttons instead of glossy
!!!! Search and replace GUMMY with GLOSSY
>    - no prelight of scrollbars
*** Clearlooks does not support this.  I actually opened a bug recently.
  >    - no colour inside sliders
*** Clearlooks does not support this.
>    - checkboxes not obviously checked
***  Not much you can do.

!!!!  Need new version of clearlooks for GUMMY tabs.  they have a bar across the top.
>    + but colour is ok
>    - progress bars look like tanks, no markers
