Description:

Numix-BLACK-Colors is a new GTK, xfwm4, openbox-3, GNOME-Shell and Cinnamon dark-mode theme which showcases a color scheme that is highly readable and attractive. The theme represents a careful crafting of modernized Numix elements, which have been structurally modified to have a flatter look and lots of rounded corners - all aiming to bring a warm, colorful, and elegant experience to your desktop.

Black-on-black-on-black with one additional color just where you need it, Numix-BLACK-Colors yields the perfect dark-mode experience.

Choose from Gold, Grape, Ice, Olive, Pomegranate, Steel , and now SLATE color varieties.

This is the matching desktop theme.

Tremendous thanks to the Numix team for inspiration, expertise and contributions at: "https://github.com/numixproject/". It is always a pleasure to be a part of any work you have advanced.

Manual Installation Is Easy for Numix-BLACK-Colors:

Extract the "tar.xz" file into your "~/.themes/" folder - to install for current user only - or into the "/usr/share/themes/" folder - for the theme to be applied globally. 2) Use the GNOME Tweak Tool or an equivalent app to enable it for your desktop.

If installing manually, make sure to install the dependency: "Murrine theme engine" if you do not already have it; and update your GTK+packages if you have not.

Logging out and then logging back in may be necessary on some operating systems to fully implement themes.

Here, the 'hover' element of GS scrollbars and sliders, are colored with a lighter version of each respective flavor's base hue. Previously, these elements rendered grey/white.

I almost forgot how good these Numixes are, it's nice to see them getting the royal treatment. The polish going into your theme collection is paying off bigtime, way to keep raising the bar :) and thanks again! All the best to you and your team. Be safe and well.

There you are; I was hoping you were taking good care of yourself - and remaining in good health! Yep, the tiny team has made things so easy for me lately, i.e. no apparent bugs - vis-a-vis all major themes - in months (knock-on-wood); so it is giving us the chance to have a good deal of fun with enhancements. Of course, that means a much more tedious process via major architectural changes, the next time the ecosystem demands it. As well, all the best to you and yours - and likewise, stay safe and healthy! :).

I love the text not being so bright. It's like tinted. please don't change anything, I'll have to switch back to my old theme if you do.

This is very nice. Just one thing, the text on gnome shell is a bit too dark and not very readable. Is a choice?

Okay, morphis, I took care of that text-brightening need in GNOME; it's up there now. Keep in mind, this theme dims the text here-and-there, anyway. GNOME had it real low, though, before. Thanks for the input!

Hi, I tried the new update. It's really more readable now! Thanks a lot man! :-)

Thanks for trying the theme. The team did consider a little lighter text on the new scheme. Some of our machines rendered it darker/lighter than others; high-def versus no high-def, etc. Most testers were heavy-dark-mode users, so I'll make a determination before the next update, via a control group of around 15 testers, in an 8 hour office environment. Take care!
