This is a Flat theme for Ubuntu and other Gnome based Linux Systems.

#Flatabulous

This is a Flat theme for Ubuntu and other debian based Linux Systems. This is based on a the Ultra-Flat theme. Special thanks to @steftrikia and Satyajit Sahoo for the original work.

#Installation

This theme was designed specially for the Unity environment on Ubuntu as I have only tested it on Ubuntu. It might not work properly for the other versions.

The terminal

To install the theme, you must first install the Ubuntu tweak tool. It can be installed by simply running the command :

1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

or heading over to there website, downloading the .deb file (recommended).

Then, you can download the source to the theme here. If you are a developer or a designer, I also encourage you to contribute to it. Create a folder, called .theme in your home directory. This can be simply created by firing up your terminal, and then running

mkdir .themes

Now this is a hidden directory, to view this in Nautilus, you can press Ctrl/⌘ + H. Alternatively, youc an also place the extracted files in your /usr/share/themes/ folder.

#Flat Icons

Dashboard

For Icons, I use the ultra-flat-icons theme. It is available in blue (recommended), orange and mint green colors. To install this, you can run the following commands

1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:noobslab/icons
2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt-get install ultra-flat-icons

Alternatively, you could also run sudo apt-get install ultra-flat-icons-orange OR sudo apt-get install ultra-flat-icons-green.

based on you color preference. I recommend these flat icons, but you can also look at Numix and Flattr.

Now press your super key, search for Ubuntu Tweak and fire it. Under the tweaks tab, there is an option for theme. Under that select the Flatabulous theme. Under the icon settings, select ultra-flat-icons. Restart your computer, and you should be good to go! You computer will look something like this after you restart.
