WoDaC 0.2 is pretty and nice idea for a dark theme. The original color scheme is based on pink color, but you will not have big problems if you choose another color scheme.

The size of toolbar incons are small (16×16), because i have created this theme for laptop with 1280×800 resolution.

The only requirement is Aurora GTK Engine 1.4

Aurora is an excellent Gtk 2 theme engine. It looks very great. The latest version of Aurora Gtk Engine is 1.4. Here I’ll show you how you can install it on Ubuntu 8.10 “Intrepid Ibex”.
