You need the
gnome-tweak-tool and the
gnome-shell-extension-user-themeMake the ~/.themes directory:
The themes will be read from
~/.themes/<theme name>/gnome-shell.
Download a theme from
hereI warmly can recommend Memento and Mint is good too but Memento has adjusted the giant icons more to my liking.
Unpack them to:
and toggle between them in the gnome-tweak-tool.
It is as easy as that!

gnome-shell-extension-user-theme is not downloading right now. Says it's there, but at the end it's not.
Code here - none of the extensions are downloading or installing right now.

Nah, I've already run everything that can be run to do that manually. 'sides, I think that's installed. I'm not going back there to find out for sure, sorry (well, maybe I will later on tonight). Still ticked at Gnome 3.

To make the clock show seconds - in a terminal:
Code: Select all
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.clock show-seconds true This is handy when measuring the time for wallpaper change etc
