Alrighty, theme looks awesome from the screenies you posted, but I have now been fighting with installation for the past hour and not got anywhere. Apologies for being a Windows noob. I have tried everything I found on the internet to unzip the tarball (and have previously succeeded with other tarballs) but I simply can't get it to create the awoken folder in /usr/share/themes/

Steps taken in terminal;

Code:

mv awoken-0.5.1.tar.gz /usr/share/themes
cd /usr/share/themes
ls -a
tar -zxvf awo<tab>
<terminal runs through loadsa pngs>
ls -a
<terminal reports no awoken folder>
gzip -d awo<tab>
ls -a
<terminal reports that the filename has had the .gz extension removed>
tar -zxvf awo<tab>
<invalid magic reported from terminal>
tar zxvf awo<tab>
<invalid magic reported from terminal>
gzip awo<tab>
ls -a
<terminal confirms the .gz extension is replaced>
tar xvf awo<tab>
<terminal runs through loadsa pngs>
ls -a
<terminal reports no awoken folder>

Again, my sincere apologies for being a windoze noob but tarball technology and the various options thereof are still a mystery to me. A little help please?
