UnknownIf your favoured window manager on Ubuntu is the lightweight resource-efficient Fluxbox, read on.  

The default look of Fluxbox leaves a lot to be desired — not that looking good is its aim, of course. Even so, to help bridge parity with the look of regular Compiz-based Ubuntu Leo Iannacone has created a set of themes for the window manager that are based on the Ambiance and Radiance GTK themes used in Unity.

Fluxbox is not a window manager for the fainthearted or novice user. With a focus on remaining as lightweight as possible it forgoes the visual finesse and “usability” tropes those used to fancier feature-packed shells like GNOME or Unity will be accustomed to. There’s no “start menu” and managing running apps can seem intimidating at first.

But while it looks a tad archaic it’s not a total neolith. Colours, style and window decorations can all be ‘themed’ through some canny text file adjustment.

These Ubuntu Light-styled themes go a long way to making the versatile manager look that touch nicer.
