I've read plenty of forums and watched many videos, and yet none have worked. I just want to install Libra Dark theme on my computer (I'm new to Ubuntu), so please help me guys.

2@markkirby that is kind of a lame accepted answer though because it uses ubuntu tweak tool. I included an answer that uses gnome-tweak-tool and/or unity-tweak-tool– mchidOct 4, 2015 at 9:43

Instruction on how you can install "external themes" in Ubuntu GNOME:
Download the theme and extract it to the /home/$USER/.themes folder.
If you haven't created this folder before, open the Nautilus file manager.
Press Ctrl + H, click File from menu, select New Folder, name it .themes.
Install GNOME Tweak Tool - open a terminal and execute:
sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool
Open the tool and change the theme.

Thanks man it worked! I try doing the same with other themes (I extracted it to the .themes folder but nothing happened. Is there something wrong with what I did? Oct 6, 2015 at 10:22

@super64ds : Thanks for your feedback. I am glad that you achieved what you wanted - some themes are not compatible (GTK version) ... enjoy ubuntu experience ! :) Oct 6, 2015 at 12:10
