My very first GTK theme
About the theme
Hope is based on Ambiance, it started as a modification to match a nice Metacity theme (see the credits), then became an exercise to learn how to make GTK themes, and now we have this.
Credits
Ambiance by Canonical(or someone who works there). Some code and elements from Elementary-GTK by 
Some code and elements from ImperssionGTK The metacity is Before Dawn by 
In the screenshot The wallpaper is C.O.L.D by 
The icons are a mix of: Faenza by 
Elementary by Ubuntu-mono by Canonical
Known Issues: The text in Firefox's Awesomebar is unreadable. The panel backgrounds are inconsistent. The theme asks for an unavailable icon theme.
Fixed Issues: The metacity theme is working fine now. The links color in blue instead of orange. There is a tar.gz file inside, you can drag and drop in the Appearance window.Recommended for you

A port for Emerald from the metacity used in this screen? Please... <3
A great theme overall but has a small problem with Ubuntu Unity (haven't seen whether this problem occurs in classic GNOME too). The scrollbar is missing on some sites in Firefox (e.g., DistroWatch) and it's missing completely in LibreOffice. Setting GtkScrollbar::has-backward-stepper and ::has-forward-stepper = 1 and stepperstyle = 3 fixes this but, obviously, the steppers become active. Otherwise, very well done and one of the very few themes to work correctly with the Unity panel and calendar.
Thanks 
I had this problem with many themes way before Unity, unfortunately, I'm not using Unity nor GTK+ 2 and currently interested in GNOME Shell and GTK+ 3, so this may or may not be fixed
As for the compatibility with Unity, it's because 'Hope' is based on the default theme, so the credits for that go to the creator of 'Ambiance'
