[SOLVED] Importing themes from xubuntu

Post by dollyp »

Is it possible to import themes from Xubuntu to Mint Xfce? Specifically the greybird and bluebird themes. I have been experimenting with both distros, having been using Mint Mate for a while, and am thinking of installing Mint Xfce as my main desktop especially now I've read a recent post here about adding Xfce onto Mint Mate. I prefer Xubuntu themes however.

You should be able to simply copy the themes across the two. They are located on /usr/share/themes. You can also just do an internet search for them and download a copy of the net. In fact they are here:

When I give opinions, they are my own. Not necessarily those of any other Linux Mint developer or the Linux Mint project as a whole.

Even easier: Open Synaptic Package Manager and install shimmer themes.
Mint Cinnamon 20.1
