Setting up the Panel

To centralise the Window Buttons create 3 Panels - placed left, centre and right - with the following properties:   (Set "Row size" to preference)



In the "Appearance" tab set "Style" to Solid color and "Color" to #D0D0D0.

In the "Items" tab add the items you want.  I have mine set up as follows:

          

This leaves two gaps between the panels.  The solution is to edit the wallpaper using Gimp as follows:

1. Open the wallpaper in Gimp.
2. Goto File > New...
3. In the pop-up box enter the width of your screen/wallpaper and selected "Row size" (in my example 1024 and 28).
4. Select the "Bucket Fill Tool" (top left toolbox) to color the image to #D0D0D0.
5. Goto Edit > Copy
6. Switch back to the wallpaper tab and goto Edit > Paste as > New Layer
7. Select the "Alignment Tool" (top left toolbox) and click on the pasted image.
8. From "Tool Options" (bottom left toolbox) select "Align bottom of target".
9. Goto "File" and either "Overwrite" the original wallpaper or use "Export As..." to save to a new file.
10. Set this as your wallpaper.

Theming for Grey version












Theme: MediterraneanWhite (Default)
Window Theme: Siva Flat
Icons: Compass

Tried to stick as close as possible to the out-of-box settings but there were a few changes needed as detailed below.  All changes are in red.  For text files, line numbers are in blue.

MediterraneanWhite

Tooltip - change background and text colors.
Scrollbar - squared and reduced borders.

/usr/share/themes/MediterraneanWhite/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:

4  gtk-color-scheme = "tooltip_bg_color:#2e3436\ntooltip_fg_color:#fbfbfb\nlink_color:#4a90f9"

62     GtkScrollbar         ::trough-border            = 0

/usr/share/themes/MediterraneanWhite/gtk-3.0/gtk.css:

8  @define-color tooltip_bg_color #2e3436;
9  @define-color tooltip_fg_color #fbfbfb;

/usr/share/themes/MediterraneanWhite/gtk-3.0/scrollbar.css:

9      -GtkRange-trough-border: 0;

61    -GtkRange-trough-border: 0px;


Siva Flat

Window Title - change text color of active window.

/usr/share/themes/Siva Flat/xfwm4/themerc:

12  active_text_color=#565656

Window Title - change text size.

1. Applications Menu > Settings > Window Manager > Style
2. Change "Title font" to Droid Sans Bold | 9.92969.


Terminal

Default size of unmaximised window (on startup).

/usr/share/vte/termcap/xterm:   (Open as Administrator)

10     :co#52:it#8:li#22:\   

Note: Change this to whatever size you want but NOT to the screen resolution (in my example 1024x768) as this will crash your session and (eventually) reboot to the Log in screen.

Change colors.

1. Right-Click > Preferences > Style
2. Change "Background" to #2E3436 and "Foreground" to #FBFBFB.


DeaDBeeF   (This does not come installed with Linux Lite. More info here.)

Change Seek-bar and Volume-bar colors.

1.  Edit > Preferences > Colours > Seek-bar/Volume-bar colours
2.  Check "Override"
3.  Change "Foreground" to #666666 and "Background" to #FBFBFB.

UPDATE: Created a new DeaDBeeF Grey theme.  Screenshots and details are available here.

Three remixes of the Blogger Watermark template* by Josh Peterson.  One in the original Parchment (#C0A154), one Grey (#666666) and one Light Coral (#F08080).

*Click here to see it in action (along with a Linux Lite review).

Wallpapers were created with Gimp using the following elements:

1. body_background_birds.png  (Pattern)
2. body_overlay_birds.png  (Layer)
3. Linux_Lite_feather.png  (Layer)

Linux_Lite_feather was scaled to 40% and colorified to #E2D4B1 (Parchment), #C0C0C0 (Grey) and #F8C5C5 (Light Coral).  body_overlay_birds was distributed 6 from top edge and -5 from right edge.

Below are the wallpapers in 4:3 and 16:9 formats (1024x768 / 1366x768):

UPDATE: 1920x1080 resolution added in post #11.

Parchment:

     

Grey:

     

Light Coral:
