I am considering to make a theme which looks like Windows 2000 since I like the interface.

Included in this theme + future inclusions:

• Not much yet...
• A bordered system tray.
• Considering to add a modified SE98 icon theme.
• Link to SE98 icon theme: Click here.

Requirements:

• GTK+ 3.22 or 3.24
• Xfce 4.12, 4.14, 4.16
• gtk2-engines-pixbuf (Recommended for GTK2 applications).
• The xfce4-panel-profiles package.
• A Window compositor (Picom).
• Marco window manager for gradient titlebars.
