Aldabra is a GTK2 theme that uses the Murrine and Pixmap engines to mimic the look of Adwaita, the default GNOME 3 theme.
The goal of this theme is to provide visual consistency between GTK2 and GTK3 applications. It is a work in progress, and there are several known issues: keyboard shortcut color in menus, gray menu gradient, and toolbar button hover glow.
Versions currently exist for GNOME 3.0 and GNOME 3.2. Please download the version of Aldabra that matches your version of GNOME.
Aldabra is available under the LGPLv2+. Anyone is welcome to rename, package, or otherwise distribute the theme (in whole or in part) as permitted by that license. Constructive feedback is greatly appreciated.

Aurora and Equinox are both very nice engines, but I would prefer to keep the number of engine dependencies to a minimum. The Moblin Netbook engine is also similar to Adwaita.

I'll post later about resizing scrollbars. I've been busy, sorry its taken me so long to reply.

Any change of fixing the scrollbar for applications like Emacs and GVim?
Voted up!

Works almost perfect with libreoffice *thumbsup*
However I appreciate it that in future gnome 3 version apps like firefox (espacially tabs in the titlebar) or libreoffice would better integrate with the look of the whole desktop.
Anyway: Thank you for sharing your theme

z-index: 1 !important;
position: relative !important;
Then create this selector:
.tabbrowser-tab[selected=false] {
z-index: 0 !important;
position: relative !important;
}
As for Aldabra, it’s amazing! I hope it makes it to upstream soon!

I've also fixed a slight tab label shifting when the throbber appears.
Unfortunately I have no idea as to how to consolidate both styles in a single .css file. There are also two other issues I couldn't fix:
Try creating enough new tabs to overflow the tab bar, then pin a couple of them.
There's no border between the unselected tabs and whatever is immediately below them (either the nav bar or the content area).

@leecon Button highlights are wrong in all of Aldabra, not just Firefox. Once buttons are fixed in gtkrc, Firefox buttons _should_ display correctly without modifications to userChrome.css.

(I changed some paddings to match Epiphany here on my machine—the differences I spotted might be related to the size I set for the UI font (Cantarell Regular @ 10pt).)

I took several screenshots and compared Firefox and Epiphany to align the various elements. Firefox is nearly pixel-pefect now. Do you know a way to make the border around #urlbar and .searchbar-textbox darker to match GtkEntry borders? Also, is there a way to disable access keys/mnemonic keys?

Two issues to go and I think we'll have a near-complete FF4 theme. ;)

I also noticed the two issues you mentioned, but I'm haven't found a fix yet. Adding a border-bottom to #TabsToolbar will draw a line under all tabs, but this is suboptimal, since the active tab should not be underlined.
I incorporated the corrected margins into another tabs-on-bottom design: http://pastebin.com/ATd9cfgb Thanks again for your excellent work!

The active tab is overlapped on the right, I'm still working on that.
