Here's a sneak peek of the Daedalus "sapphire" theme. It's presented on black because the light background of the forum kills the intense blue which has a "glow" on the desktop:
This theme was inspired by the jewel-like waters of the Mediterranean sea where Deadalus was born on the island of Crete:
Note that a 1080p specific background option will be available for Daedalus thanks to Lars Noodén!
More to come . . .

Nice theme. Thank you for your work!

Nice. A blue that does not give me microsoft gag response. Good job.

Definitely prefer the second (light on dark) version. Nice colours!

Not quite sure about the openbox themerc. I asked for testers but no one ever responded . . .
It's the first I have heard of this. I installed the Clearlooks-Phenix-Deepsea-theme and the openbox themerc looks homogeneous and accords with the gtk theme.

Oh, Aitor . . . THANK YOU!! Could you please post some screenshots? I only adjusted the hexes in the file with what I think should work but have never actually seen it!! It might need some tweaking . . .
Oops I need to learn how to read . . . The deepsea theme for Chimaera is fine. We're talking about the sapphire theme for Daedadus!!

Here's the themerc for openbox with the sapphire hexes. The one in the current package is unchanged from the original clearlooks-phenix theme. Replace the one in the sapphire theme package with this one. If you can figure out why it doesn't work, please let us know.

Sorry for the long bump here...I just installed Daedalus in a VM and pulled down the Sapphire theme suite. It...look exactly the same as DeepSea aside from some highlight/accent colors. Is this intentional, or is more work planned to be done on it?

Greetings Azuma Hazuki!
I have been following your LXQt thread with great interest. Thank you for porting the themes to a WM environment!
No need to pull down anything from daedalus to get the themes. All of the raw files and documentation for all the themes are collected in our git store
The base colors of chimaera and daedalus are extremely different. The deepsea theme of chimaera is greenish and murky. This was my inspiration. The sapphire theme of daedalus evokes the brilliant colors of the sun drenched seas surrounding the Greek Islands where Daedalus was born.
That being said, the 2 themes share a light blue element so I recycled the icons and images from the Clearlooks-Phenix-Deepsea and the gnome desktop icons. All the other elements and icons share there respective signature colors. It works well on the desktop but a WM might not use the features that focus on the primary theme color but rather just the shared elements.

Sapphire theme is done I don't know if Devuan has a particular emphasis on LXQt or not, but hopefully people get some use and enjoyment out of these. I really like both Devuan and LXQt as projects, but due to complete lack of coding skill this is the only way I can contribute anything...

Quite a few Devuan users have LXDE or LXQt installed so your themes will definitely be appreciated. Maybe you'd want to open an account on our git and add them there?

Ditto. I am pretty good at playing with colors, editing/writing and keeping track of Devuan's history etc. I also took care of the websites for many releases but have now passed that task on to someone else. I will do the wallpaper for Excalibur but no more theming beyond that. Perhaps you'd want to take some of that on for XFCE? Please contact me on irc or by email if you have an interest in that.
