Beryl.

Its the LiNsta (Linux is Not Vista) theme.
*gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=44570&forumpage=4

The Window Border is vista_glow (Beryl as kalpik said, and using Emerald)

And the transparencies can be set via panel properties, or by holding alt and moving the mouse wheel up or down, keeping the cursor on the required object (Panel or Window) [Requires beryl running]

Ohh thanks can you tell me how to install different pointer ? I think you got what I want to say ? :S

 

[QwertyManiac]

Yep!

Head to this page to look at some good ones (X11 Mouse Pointer Themes)
*www.gnome-look.org/index.php?xsortmode=down&page=0

Download your choice and extract the folder. Then move it to the .icon folder of your Home directory.

mv <directory name> .icons/

Now go to System > Preferences > Mouse and go to the Pointers tab to see them there ..

Fear not, there's a GUI way too. Go to your home folder and hit Ctrl + H to show hidden files. Now enter .icons folder and extract the required theme directly there itself and then follow the Sys > Pref > Mouse to change it.

Thanks btw where is that directory ? :S Plz help me Thanks rest I know just main points where to move them

 

[QwertyManiac]

/home/<user name>/.icons

 

[Dark Star]

Thanks btw isn't is the same folder where icons got saved . ? While installing from themes ,. This means we can install them from themes too

 

[QwertyManiac]

Yes you could do it from there previously on Ubuntu, but now it just shows me an invalid file format error, thus my suggested method.

And even if you do that, and accidentally click it on the icons area when it shows up, it used to hang after that. (If you dont do that and go to mouse directly after it, it works fine) Not good

 

[Dark Star]

The problem happening with you is that you are uncompressing the .tar.gz file do not extract the folder and install it as it Its working without any hassle

 

[QwertyManiac]

Yeah I am trying the uncompressed of course, how will a theme manager recognize a folder anyway, am not that dumb
