Tried to follow steps from web-page:

$ Cd/usr/share/themes/Actual_Theme/images/
$ Mv ApplicationShortcutAppletPressed.png ApplicationShortcutAppletPressed.png.old
$ Mv ApplicationShortcutApplet.png ApplicationShortcutApplet.png.old

Got as far as:

$ sudo gainroot
$ Cd/usr/share/themes/dthemenight-themedir/images

and it returns:

/bin/sh: Cd/usr/share/themes/dthemenight-themedir/images: not found

also tried:

$ Cd/usr/share/themes

to check it wasn't just a miss spelling of the theme folder, but got the same reply:

/bin/sh: Cd/usr/share/themes: not found

Why can't it find/access the folder? is there a step missing from the instructions. I do have sudo gainroot installed, so I do get "Root shell enabled", I'm not to great with the command line so any help would be appreciated

Hmm..looks like the guys at the site inadvertently made a mistake.

'cd' is a command ,there needs to be a space in between like this

cd /usr/share/themes/Actual_Theme/images/

Thanks, also found it should be lower case "m" in "mv" as upper case doesn't work

EDIT:

So for anyone else who is wanting to do this that isn't very confident with the command line, I followed the steps below:

1) Used "cute explorer" (which is in extras) to navigate to "/usr/share/themes" (just keep pressing "up" till you can go no further and work from there)
2) Using this you can find the exact folder name for the theme you are trying to change, so in my case "dthemenight-themedir"

3) followed the steps below from the webpage:


$ sudo gainroot
$ cd /usr/share/themes/dthemenight-themedir/images/
$ mv ApplicationShortcutAppletPressed.png ApplicationShortcutAppletPressed.png.old
$ mv ApplicationShortcutApplet.png ApplicationShortcutApplet.png.old

so mv not Mv, and as techie said a space after the "cd /usr"

also when it first starts up the icons will still have the shadows, but if you give it a second they will disappear

Glad to be of help.
Yes terminal is case sensitive and everything should be lower case unless otherwise specified (for e.g directory name).Sorry should have pointed that out earlier
