A selection of GTK+, GNOME-Shell and Cinnaon themes, plus stunning Linux icon packs, cute Conky configs, Plank themes and plenty, plenty more.
Moka is my favourite alternative Ubuntu icon set right now - and I think it could end up being your new fave, too.
Here's an icon set that will please those into 'flat design' - it's what clichéd people on the TV would called 'bang on trend' right now.
Fed up of GNOME 3 apps looking less than perfect in Ubuntu 13.04? Don't be; download & install these themes to get theme conformity back.
