Just in here for two things:

1. We have changed our host again: The Lila project is now located at
:arrow: http://lila-theme.berlios.de. Looks like it's a good place to stay. Good uptimes. Subversion repository. I like it.

2. The kde port for the Lila icon set is active again, and back to kde-look.org as well.

Have fun!


SOLVED: Sloppy ebuild numbers and homepage titles - (Download manually and edit ebuilds!)

I don't get it - this is a great set of eye candy enhancements for gentoo yet it seems so under maintained
WHY WON'T GENTOO GET ONBOARD WITH THIS PROJECT ?? THIS SHOULD BE A STAT EBUILD IN PORTAGE!!

WHO CAN I PROTEST TO ??

http://lila-theme.berlios.de/files/tarballs/lila-gnome-0.6.3.tar.bz2
http://lila-theme.berlios.de/files/tarballs/lila-gnome-0.6.2.tar.bz2 (only *.bz2 available)


I also think this should be an official Gentoo iconset - especially since it's licenced under GPL too. On a side note, I ported these icons to Enlightenment DR 17 (get-e.org eapps section). Thanks to all the Lila community members, awesome set :) If I find enough time I'll try to make a Lila Evidence filemanager theme too.

I cannot download any files from http://lila-theme.berlios.de/files/tarballs/
Anyone else experiencing this?

Yes, I am experiencing the same problem. Here is the message I get:

...whatever it was, it seems to work now (at least at my system).

Also, I'd like to invite y'all to post to the :arrow: Lila forum instead of this thread, because we developers usually don't read the posts in here. Although, I think I'll get me an auto-notification. *pling - auto-notification activated* ;-)

It's just as maintained as people are willing to work on it... so, anybody thinking this way should feel free to change the situation, it seems the number of active developers is decreasing quickly. Remember, if you don't do it, nobody does! (With a few exceptions, of course.)

Also, get the updated version 0.8.1 of the KDE port from the Lila Center now!

Hi!

If you'd like to help, please have a look at http://lila-center.info and http://forums.lila-center.info.

Especially the Gnome theme needs work done to it.

Thanks.

Nice to see this running again. The theme is well done (though I wonder if it isn't too basic for today's tastes) and is more of a full system theme. Congrats on a job well done.

To answer your questions:
For me the simlicity is the thing I like about Lila.
And yes, Lila is a full system theme for Gnome, KDE, Openbox, PekWM, Rox-filer, xfce and icewm. And themes exists for example for Audacious.

FYI: Lila Theme is now (mostly) distribution independant. So let's continue the discussion on http://forums.lila-center.info. See you there!

Thanks.

To all the lila Fans. I was pushing that theme in the late ~2006, we even created a #lila channel on Freenode, some dedicated lila-theme Gentoo-overlay etc.

As of today all the URLs that I know are gone:
http://lila-theme.uni.cc/
http://www.lila-center.info

I can hardly find any more than 1 or 2 result on Google anymore. I know the Lila theme was not maintained anymore. I still have my old screenshots when I was using Lila on my Gentoo-iBookG3 in 2005... never had such a sleek icon set anymore. I have to admit that today I'm not even sure which iconset I had choosen on Xfce, it is Adwaita, nothing special.

Isn't there any hosting website of the old iconset anymore? At least gnome-look still has some residuals:

Gtk2 Themes:
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1079383/
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1079383/
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1078839/

GDM Themes:
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1011271/

Metacity Themes:
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1006700/

Wallpaper:
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1038909/

Screenshots:
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1125736/
Ok, I just thought I have my old screenshot a place to live:
https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1178506/


Today, still running an Xfce screen (I left KDE when KDE4 was released), I could use some Gtk themes from the old Lila. But on issue is that most stuff today has migrated to Gtk3.
