I have set the dark variation of Adwaita to be used for all apps via gnome tweak tool and it looks great.

Any way to get Chrome to use the theme or anyone know of any Chrome themes to match it?
I just checked Gnome-look today and found Moonrise, a new dark theme that just got uploaded in June. Moonrise has a dark blueish color theme that empathizes contrast and visibility. It supports both gtk3, gtk 2 and gnome shell.
If you are boring with your current Gnome Theme, you should try this nice dark theme for Gnome. Its called Dark-Linux 0.6 theme. This theme is applied to any Linux distro as long as Gnome is used as default desktop manager. Want to try this Dark-Linux 0.6 on your Linux?

I use a very dark gtk3 theme on my gnome desktop. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 and using the gnome shell. So I use the old gnome interface.
How is it possible to use another (a bright one, like the default Adwaita) theme for my eclipse IDE.
I am sure a lot of people is missing the old #! Shiki-Statler-Dark Theme I have uploaded the obt (Openbox Theme) of the original Shiki-Statler-Dark Theme.

I have a dark theme on 12.10 I really like that has 1 issue. Every dark theme I've tried with unity and GTK has been showing light shaded characters on google or any other white colored search bar or engine. I learned there is a way to correct this with dark themes. What are the methods for doing that type of task?
The default color in my top panel has changed from white to a very dark grey, making my menus virtually unreadable against the black of the Ambiance theme. This includes even the login screen menu.
I used Gnome Tweak to change the theme to Adwaita, but while some text has gone light grey (e.g. Date/Time), the login menu text remains dark grey, as do most icons (e.g.
