Font: Aller Sans

Instructions:

Please avoid a manual install and use the GNOME Tweak Tool, it's much easier.

You can use the gnome-shell theme extension for easier switching of themes. Unzip the file and load which version you want into the gnome tweak tool, i.e Orta-3.2.zip

GNOME Tweak Tool

Make sure you have user-theme-extension installed. Load the GNOME Tweak Tool and go to Shell Extensions and click the "Use Theme Extension" switch. Now go to Theme>Shell Theme and click the box and locate your theme zip. Now you can select the theme in the dropdown box.

I love this theme. Nice work!

For whatever reason, I did have a little bit of trouble in the overview. The hover-over text for the dash apps and the icons for the application overview were all smashed together. I assume it was just some weird thing with my set-up, but if anyone else had trouble with this, I changed gnome-shell.css to include:

.dash-label {
border-radius: 7px;
padding: 4px 12px;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
text-align: center;
-x-offset: 8px;
background-gradient-direction: vertical;
background-gradient-start: #5d5d5d;
background-gradient-end: #757575;
border: 1px solid rgba(255,255,255,0.0);
box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 3px 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
color: #fff;
font-size: 10pt;
-shell-caption-spacing: 4px;
}

which more or less (more less than more) matches the window captions

and

.icon-grid {
spacing: 50px;
-shell-grid-horizontal-item-size: 118px;
-shell-grid-vertical-item-size: 118px;
}

thanks for the many good themes!

Thanks. Yes, it's not 3.4 compatible yet.

Yep, you have 3.4 CSS lines there which is what the problem is, same with the contacts in the overview.

Hum I used meld to see the diff between Orta 3.0 & 3.2, It's CSS only :(
JS seems to be only for declarative properties.

I think I could made a 3.2 Dark from 3.0 Dark by copying your changes on the white Orta, but I could do some mistakes.
