I really like the SystemG (http://art.gnome.org/themes/metacity/778) Metacity theme. However, for some reason, the fact that the window title isn't centered in the theme is driving me nuts. I've tried to contact the author for a bit of advice on how to alter it, but I haven't received a response yet.
Any theming wizards out there willing to give me a hand?

After installing the theme, open the file ~/.themes/SystemG/metacity-1/metacity-theme-1.xml
You're gonna replace the following two lines:
Line 172:
<title color="gtk:fg[SELECTED]" x="3" y="((height - title_height) / 2) `max` 0"/>
Line 178:
<title color="blend/gtk:fg[SELECTED]/gtk:bg[SELECTED]/0.5" x="3" y="((height - title_height) / 2) `max` 0"/>
With this:
Line 172:
<title color="gtk:fg[SELECTED]" x="((width - title_width) / 2) `max` 0" y="((height - title_height) / 2) `max` 0"/>
Line 178:
<title color="blend/gtk:fg[SELECTED]/gtk:bg[SELECTED]/0.5" x="((width - title_width) / 2) `max` 0" y="((height - title_height) / 2) `max` 0"/>
And that should get you want you want.

Thanks! I'll try it as soon as I get a chance.
