On Linux Mint, there is this theme called WildMint, looks somewhat like an older Ubuntu Studio theme. Anyway, I have been trying to find how to get it to work on Ubuntu instead of Mint. It is nowhere to be found on Gnome-Look and I've tried to search everywhere for it. Also, I've tried just copying the folder from /usr/share/themes but I just get errors even when running Nautilus under gksudo.

Any ideas would be great! Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can find WildMint in LinuxMint's repository:
http://packages.linuxmint.com/list.php?release=Isadora
WildMint is inside the package "mint-artwork-gnome"
(older packages can be found here http://packages.linuxmint.com/ )

you can try to extract the WildMint theme from the mint-artwork-gnome deb package to see if it will work without installing any extra theme engines.

PS> You can create a hidden folder named ".themes" inside your home folder and place the WildMint theme folder in there.

Thanks! :D Worked perfect on Karmic, off to try lucid now. The only other thing I had to do was install the aurora gtk engine, but that was pretty easy.
