Also, is there a dock for ubuntu? I am used to using docks (I used objectdock on XP), si it'd be nice to have one for Ubuntu.
you might want to use emerald theme manager. it works pretty good if you have compiz enabled. you can get it by running
Code:
sudo apt-get install emerald
from a terminal. then you can go to gnome-look and on the left pane select compiz and then you can browse the compatible themes. to get the theme to load, you need to open emerald, system/preferences/emerald theme manager, and then you need to import the theme you downloaded. you can do that by selecting import, and then navigating to where you saved the theme from gnome-look. select the theme file and it should show up in emerald. click on the theme and if it doesnt use change your theme automatically, hit alt-f2 and type in
