    Question Creating Lubuntu Themes

    Hi, I think this is the right place to post this. I will be installing Lubuntu on my Powerbook G4 once I get a new hard drive. I'm wondering how you would create a theme. Could you just create a theme for Openbox or would you need some extra things for Lubuntu?

    Re: Creating Lubuntu Themes

    Lubuntu uses LXDE (basically just a panel, as far as themes go), Openbox, and GTK. Each of these have their own theme. Info on the LXPanel is available here. It seems pretty simple and straightforward.
    For theming Openbox and GTK I usually find it easiest to tweak an existing theme. You can do this by making a copy of a theme before you install it and editing it, or by just changing the config file of the current theme. I usually tweak the colors to match between GTK and the window theme.
    Hope this helps.
