I know that it must be frustrating as a theme developer to have the Gnome/GTK+ devs basically ignore you in terms of backwards compatibility, but, seriously, can we please please please have a fixed and updated version of the best GTK3 theme for Gnome 3.6?
Pleasepleasepleaseplease?

Using this in 12.04. Strangely, this theme works except for the font -- they are white in white BG. I can't read!

On Unity with 12.04, I'm getting white text on white background in Nautilus and various other software, such as Ubuntu-tweak.
This spoils the theme and renders it unusable.
Could you give us an update or tell us how to repair it ourselves?

Fixed it by changing nbg_color in /gtk-3/settings.ini - works everywhere but in the software center

Can you give step-by-step fix? I can't understand. In my /usr/share/themes/Hope-DT/gtk-3.0/settings.ini, I see bg_color:#F2F1F0 (\nbg_color). But change it to what?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
this works for me too. @grvrulz, why not apply this and push out a new version for gnome 3.4? i understand it must be pretty annoying to deal with the GTK+ devs changing things every release that break themes, but this one change fixes the theme for me.

Hello grvrulz, I tried putting the Hope folders in /usr/share/themes (the location for Arch) but the theme doesn't show up in tweak tool. I even tried adding index.theme files that look like this:
[X-GNOME-Metatheme]
Name=Hope-DT
Type=X-GNOME-Metatheme
Encoding=UTF-8
GtkTheme=Hope-DT
MetacityTheme=Hope-DT
IconTheme=gnome
CursorTheme=Adwaita
CursorSize=24

The applications panel is messed up as hell, and the GTK theme doesn't work. Also the popup space at the bottom is an annoying gray colour, you should change it to black. Please fix those, else the theme is unusable. Otherwise, it looks pretty damn great.

Great theme but I always get the message
~/.themes/Hope/gtk-2.0/apps/gnome-panel.rc:121: error: unexpected character `\', expected string constant
Any ideas?

My Firefox gets ugly, resembles that default gtk look with no theme, when I select Hope on GTK in the gnome tweak tool. The rest of the theme seems to work fine, any help?
