While messing around with Gnome, I came up with a rather nice theme I thought it would be nice to share. Wasn't sure exactly where to post this, but here goes.

I call it Dark Java.
Controls: Human
Window Border: DarkRoom
Icons: Breathe

Colors:
Windows: #131313/#BCB08B
Input Boxes: #4A4A4A/#BCB08B
Selected Items: #5E4E41/#FFFFFF
Tooltips: #211B12/#BCB08B

The overall goal was to make the style feel like a nice dark roasted blend of awesome. I think it accomplishes that with minimal tweaking. :)

Edit: A link for the wallpaper, if anyone wants it. I got it off of an image board, so the true source is a mystery to me. Will try to find out, though. Give credit where credit is due. :) http://imgur.com/mWihb.jpg

Almost reminds me of Karmic X, only with Darkroom. But if you ask me, making your own metacity is much better, that way you keep originality.

I don't even know what a metacity is, to be honest. Was just looking to make a nice rich color scheme.

Metacity is the window decorator, and has themes like darkroom. GNOME is the desktop environment. It is best you know what each part of the desktop is before theming it.
