Get a Vista-inspired theme for your GNOME desktop. Enjoy a new look with this software that brings the sleek design and feel of Windows Vista to your desktop environment.
Distant Light is an elegant GTK theme that offers a unique take on the Windows Vista theme. The developer started editing LinSta GTK to create this theme and used other sources to get certain graphics and tailor them. A wallpaper link is available that leads to an excluded picture, adding an element of surprise. For updates and other releases, the developer's blog is accessible, and any modifications made to the theme can be shared with the developer.
To install the theme: right-click on your desktop, select Change Desktop Background, click on the first tab, Theme, and drag and drop the theme's archive into the Appearance Preferences window. If installation is successful, a confirmation message will appear, and the theme can be activated by clicking on it.
GNOME is an international effort to build a complete desktop environment using entirely free software. It includes software development frameworks, application software for the desktop, and programs that manage application launching, file handling, and window and task management. GNOME can be used with various Unix-like operating systems, including Linux and Java Desktop System in Solaris. The name originally stood for GNU Network Object Model Environment. Still, the GNOME project puts simplicity, usability, and making things "just work" at the forefront of its goals.
