Beautiful Numix GTK3 Theme Released

<div style="text-align: justify;">The GTK3 theme many of you have asked about in our previous posts has been released: it's called <b><a href="http://satya164.deviantart.com/art/Numix-GTK3-theme-360223962">Numix</a></b> and it comes a flat, modern look with square corners, a dark panel and dark window theme with dark menus.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBCSNqe4nNIBj6Pg0mTORjd1jGlzrGcLnGQH_YRT48Hg5C8lfXm-eefVwEu0g9UsCk_Nxw6UgKjU0VI07F9XtJxqU0aSq2Ogy7TY4XFgDwz8DNOtI1zH6WmFGMUzQeIRF3aVuTiSfy3F50/s1600/numix.png" imageanchor="1" rel="image_group" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="numix gtk3 theme" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBCSNqe4nNIBj6Pg0mTORjd1jGlzrGcLnGQH_YRT48Hg5C8lfXm-eefVwEu0g9UsCk_Nxw6UgKjU0VI07F9XtJxqU0aSq2Ogy7TY4XFgDwz8DNOtI1zH6WmFGMUzQeIRF3aVuTiSfy3F50/s500/numix.png" title="numix gtk3 theme" width="500" /></a></div><br /><a name="more"></a><div style="text-align: justify;">Numix is available for GTK 3.6 and it supports GNOME Shell, Unity, Pantheon, Xfce and Openbox.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">For now, the theme is not available in a PPA but it should be pretty soon. Also, in the future, there will be some Numix variants (dark toolbar, etc.) along with a GNOME Shell and an icon theme.<br /><br />Since it's compatible with GTK 3.6, the theme supports Ubuntu 12.10 and 13.04 (and obviously, other Linux distributions that ship with GTK 3.6). The theme probably works with GTK 3.4 (and thus Ubuntu 12.04), however, the inset shadows and text shadows won't work.

By the way, besides Dropbox, ownCloud also supports other external storages such as Amazon S3, Google Drive, FTP, OpenStack Swift, SMB / CIFS, WebDavv and SFTP.</div><br /><br /><b><a href="https://owncloud.org/support/install/">Download ownCloud</a> or try the <a href="http://demo.owncloud.org/">demo</a>.</b>
