Hi, would love if you could update this to 3.16. This is by far the best theme out there and only one I can use. thanx

VincentF98 Featured By Owner Apr 11, 2015

On Gnome 3.16 the titlebars don't look right in all applications.
this should fix it:

I have the same issue in Linux Mint. Any idea how to solve it? (Browsing how to solve this weird lines at the moment)

If it wasn't for the lines, right now my PC would look perfect!

beta992 Featured By Owner Edited Jan 28, 2015

No problems here, seems you are not running all Gnome components.
Please post your problem on your Distro-forum.

Good 2015 for you lassekongo83!
Hope you can update your themes and bring more new features soon!

I liked the old shell theme better, without the "logo" and more transparent look. Love the theme though, first thing I always install!

beta992 Featured By Owner Dec 19, 2014

Looks good! I really like the flat tabs, hope this get's default (for apps).

michal2105 Featured By Owner Nov 6, 2014

Hi, you do the great work!
Please, could you update Zukitwo-dark-shell theme for Gnome 3.14. It's the best theme ever...!
Thanks a lot!

jayr0 Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2014

is it suppose to be solid black (top panel) or is it suppose to be transparent?

lassekongo83 Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2014

Preview image haven't been updated for the current release. It's supposed to be just slightly transparent with no gradient these days.

jayr0 Featured By Owner Oct 25, 2014

must be missing something mines solid black & has a sideways s in it

goopen Featured By Owner Oct 23, 2014

Awesome work. How did you remove the ugly borders around the image previews? Is it controlled by gtkrc?

tedil Featured By Owner Oct 23, 2014 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Just some thumbs up from me. I've been using Zukitwo for quite some time now, all the while giving different themes a spin, but zukitwo is just the most pleasing *for me*. Keep up that work

MaMuS Featured By Owner Oct 19, 2014

There seems to be a little regression where the toolbar in gtk3 apps is way slimmer than it should be:

looking nice and smooth! well done!

Mrtank116 Featured By Owner Oct 14, 2014

Im on linux mint and I have created shade buttons for the gtk theme, how do I implement them?

Magnusmaster Featured By Owner Oct 4, 2014

Please update this gorgeous theme for GTK+ 3.14! GNOME broke it again

lassekongo83 Featured By Owner Oct 17, 2014

The latest version can now be grabbed from github: github.com/lassekongo83/zuki-t…
There may however be some weird bugs here and there.

lassekongo83 Featured By Owner Oct 4, 2014

It's probably going to take a while. So many changes in this release... :/

xX-Deminu-Xx Featured By Owner Sep 18, 2014 Hobbyist Digital Artist

Looks incredible, will definitely give it a shot

I especially like how you've gone with the Mac-esque clean/light look while at the same time maintaining originality. Great job!

detly Featured By Owner Sep 4, 2014

In Ubuntu 14.04 (under Gnome Shell/GTK3 3.10 and Unity 7.2.2), background tabs in Nautilus and other applications appear to be black. I realise this is for Gnome 3.12, but the Launchpad page listing older versions has no download for 3.10, and there's no PPA for Gnome 3.12 that actually works. Is a bug in the theme, or an incompatibility? Is it possible to find a version of the theme for 3.10?

lassekongo83 Featured By Owner Sep 4, 2014

bazaar.launchpad.net/~lassekon… click download tarball.

detly Featured By Owner Oct 4, 2014

Thanks! I ended up reverting to Gnome 3.10, and this works well.

detly Featured By Owner Sep 4, 2014

I added the Gnome 3.12 PPA, and carefully upgraded the packages that could be upgraded. It looks like it is an incompatibility, because the problem is gone now. Thanks for the great theme

behmn Featured By Owner Edited Jul 14, 2014

Really awesome theme. Thank you. I am glad that XFCE becomes available for users who are aware of art.
I found a little bug in the theme though. The systray is has a light background while the whole panel is dark.
Could you fix that, please?

I tried it myself, but I can't find a way...

eonghk Featured By Owner Jun 5, 2014

I'm using Gnome 3.12 and I tried your theme. Is there a window theme working with the GTK theme? I want the beautiful icons at the right top corner.

here is a screenshot.

ThaFitoS Featured By Owner May 3, 2014 Hobbyist Interface Designer

Those new tabs look AWESOME.

sinecarne Featured By Owner Apr 29, 2014

is the metacity theme different for focused and unfocused windows? titlebars seem to be darker on unfocused windows, which doesn't fit

sinecarne Featured By Owner Apr 29, 2014

as you can see here: s1.directupload.net/images/140…
gnome-mplayer is focused, geany and file manager aren't - those unfocused windows have a darker background. it doesn't seem intended.

hamishpaulwilson Featured By Owner Apr 24, 2014

I would appreciate it if the menu bars (File, Edit, etc) would be made the same pixel size in both the GTK2 and GTK3 versions. I had this with my last theme until I was forced to switch thanks to GTK 3.12, and since I am using Xfce I switch between applications using both versions a lot.

ScionicSpectre Featured By Owner Apr 3, 2014 Professional Digital Artist

Amazing- thanks for keeping up the hard work. Now that the major widgets featured in GNOME 3's concepts are here in 3.12, I'm hoping there won't be a great deal of discrepancy with future GTK releases.

iamajd Featured By Owner Apr 1, 2014

I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your work. I've used several different GS and gtk2/3 themes over the years but I often come back to Zukitwo. It's just... simple and beautiful. I also really appreciate that you keep your projects up-to-date. A lot of themers for GNOME have abandoned their creations so it means a lot to me that in all the disorder, Zukitwo is always there. I'm really looking forward to GNOME 3.12 hitting the main arch repos so I can update to your latest versions (and because the new features look great!).

RainbowDash2k14 Featured By Owner Mar 31, 2014

This is purely amazing. Any donation possibilities?

iamajd Featured By Owner Apr 1, 2014

This is an excellent question. I look forward to the answer.

RainbowDash2k14 Featured By Owner Apr 2, 2014

I suggest lassekongo83 to make a short one-page website for Zukitwo to make the theme more visible and provide the donation possibilities there!

nekron29 Featured By Owner Apr 8, 2014

! Mattias any thoughts on that?

Nice theme. Keep it alive.

TaylanTatli Featured By Owner Mar 22, 2014 Hobbyist Interface Designer

I love this theme but it's not good enough with mate.

Can you add mate specific tweaks to your theme?

stanryroo Featured By Owner Mar 11, 2014

What toolbar are you using? Looks cool.

soeren-can Featured By Owner Mar 4, 2014

Thanks for the great theme, loving it! One "bug" though for me: In Evince and Rhythmbox all menu captions are bright white instead of dark. Is this a GTK3 issue or simply a problem on my end (running Debian Wheezy)? Thanks again for your great work!!
