[ubuntu-studio-devel] [semi off-topic] Nearly done with fine detail port of modded US circa 2008 theme to Gtk 3.14 w matching Gtk2 version

[lukefromdc at hushmail.com]

Anyone installing this with the normal GTK2 build of MATE will essentially get
back the whole interface of UbuntuStudio in 2008-2010, especially if they use one
of the old wallpapers with it.  This will change only slightly if Ubuntu builds
MATE with gtk3 in the future, though the murrine engine in GTK2 renders the
widgets a bit sharper than any screenshot copy can ever be.

I did find that a white selected foreground color did NOT work in GTK3, so I
used a light blue made by applying a brightness increase to the US blue.
Otherwise gtk3 will not change the color of a selected folder in Caja-gtk3 at all, 
though it will sometime work in Nemo. I don't know how other file managers
would react at all, I do recal having this same issue when I first rebased the
theme on the "E17" gtk3 theme's code.
