I am using Ubuntu 12.10 with Gnome-Shell from the gnome-3-team/gnome3 ppa.
This is working great, and I have my custom theme setup.
The only issue I am running into is that Gnome-Shell seems to forget the theme after every reboot.
If I open gnome-tweak-tool the correct theme is selected, however it is not applied; if I select anything else and then re-select the theme it is then applied correct
Both Advanced Settings (gnome-tweak-tool) and Ubuntu Tweak refer to "Window theme" and "GTK theme". What are the nuances between these two settings? Where can I find a discussion of this?
I'm experiencing some problems with Ubuntu Gnome Remix 12.10 64bits.
My gnome-tweak-tool doesn't apply themes properly. For the gkt themes, I noted that they are not fully applied. For example, I select Elementary's gtk theme and the window's border (metacity?) still with Adwaita. The theme also looks weird, what led me to believe that there was some engine missing, but that wasn't the case.
As the title implies, I'm on Ubuntu Gnome Shell Remix 12.10 and not able to change the window theme for themes I have downloaded. In the tweak-tool, I am able to set the GTK theme to a theme I have downloaded, but it does not work with that theme's respective window border.
Half-left has designed yet another great theme for Gnome Shell. His latest theme is based on the look of Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin and it looks really beautiful.

I am facing a problem related to corrupted gtk theme for certain applications. My default theme is Ambiance under Unity.
