Just wanted to let you know it is relatively easy to remove the boxes on the icons. Got bored one evening so tried to see how close I could hack unity to look like this
The box is just a .png file in /usr/share/unity/4. Can't remember exactly what file but I think it's launcher_icon_back_54.png or launcher_icon_edge_54.png. I just replaced it with an empty png. I'm using Gnome Shell at the moment anyway because I couldn't stand the unity workflow
Now that looks GREAT I'm sorry for prying, but can I ask if you followed a turoial or something? I am running "Xubuntu" and have been rolling through the list of themes and borders and can't seem to settle on one I like Then I found yours!! but I don't have those themes in Xubuntu. Can you link where you got them from? And I'd really like to know how you got the dock bars to match up perfectly like that. Looks really awesome
