Smurflover look for these in Synaptic.

gtk-theme-blackwood-1.0-1pclos2010.noarch.rpm
blackwood-icon-theme-1.0-1pclos2010.noarch.rpm
e17_themes-blackwood-20101024-1pclos2010.i586.rpm


I added those to smurflover's ecomorph spin that I'm running in VirtualBox. I like the blackwood themes so much I decided to add them to my bare metal e17 install. A search in Synaptic for "blackwood" on the PASS server comes up empty. I got the blackwood packages in VirtualBox using the spout.indiana repository.

EDIT: Packages now on PASS server. Thanks, Tex!

The community edition isn't ready yet need to put the artwork in place but i'm waiting for problems to be reported. Still have a few things to fix also.
The packages are the same only i've set up a basic and fast e17 with pcmanfm as filemanager and included ecomorph 3d from the testing repo. Chromium is the default webbrowser.
It's a mini version with e17 which means you have to choose your own applications. :-)

When it's ready i'll grow it into a full version with applications for most common end-user tasks.

TExstar i have a minor problem with the icon theme.
Toolbars of gtk apps use the default gnome icon, the darkwood icons do not provide these icons or do i miss a setting somewhere?
