The Cinnamon desktop on Linux is very themeable, I will show you how to install a nice Windows 10 theme on Linux. There is a nice theme available here: https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-10.
Download the Windows 10 icons here: https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-10-Icons/archive/master.zip.
Install the main theme under your ~/.themes directory, then select it in your Cinnamon themes dialog. If you have a Windows 10 machine you can borrow, the wallpapers are in this folder on it.
C:\Windows\Web |
This will really change you desktop for the better. It will be dark and stylish. This is a great change from the boring default theme.
