[Help] Customising Linux Mint.

[Elektrisk]

Hello.

I have Linux Mint (Gloria) and wish to customise it. I've seen many screenshots of Linux users with really awesome, tricked out desktops. I'd like to know how to make my desktop look cool, similar to using an advanced theme on Windows. I'm using a theme that Gloria came with, but I'd like to explore more. So, some questions:

1. Where do I go to get icon packages, themes, ect for Linux Mint? I'm using GNOME.

2. Where do I go, on my system, to install these themes, ect?

Thanks a lot.

I am not a Linux user but I found this link, it directs you on how to install a theme.

I don't know if it is correct, as stated, I don't use Linux.

Hope it helps

You can download AWN (Avant Window Navigator). That's a dock-like navigation bar.

This is where I get my themes.

When you download the theme it is usually in tar.gz format, leave it like that and install it.

You can install your theme via Preferences, Appearance, then install your theme.

Hope I helped.

I usually use art.gnome.org. It uses a simple layout and has plenty of themes.
