i installed the theme but I cannot get this scrollbar effect and menubar effect. Do I have to hack nautilus in order to accomplish this?

That's because it's only a Metacity theme, not a GTK theme. GTK themes control your scrollbars and your menubars :)

what then do i have to do to achieve that effect?

i know how to switch from theme to theme but how do i use a metacity theme as opposed to a GTK theme?

thanks for the help.

Metacity is the Window Manger on Gnome. It controls how your titlebars and window borders behave.

GTK is the graphics engine in Gnome, such that it controls the application background, menus, selections, scrollbars, menubars, etc. You can get GTK themes from gnome-look.org. I don't know what GTK the author of VistaRoundFocus uses, but I'm sure if you post a comment asking, he'll let you know.

So, as you see, you don't use Metacity as opposed to GTK, you have a Metacity and a GTK theme.
