How do I get and install more themes, icons, and pointers?

I switched from Unity to Gnome 3.4 but I'd like to tweak my desktop a bit. I want to use a gnome shell theme but the gnome tweak tool won't allow me to modify the gnome shell themes. I've read somewhere that if I reinstall the gnome-shell then it would conflict with Unity and I wouldn't be able to safely use Unity anymore. Is there a way to change the theme without reinstalling the gnome-shell?

gnome tweak tool will install both gnome3 and gnome2 fallback and install gnome-tweak-tool

also for themes download from gnome look and extract the files on directory ~/.themes (if not exist just create it )

  • Can you clarify what you mean in your first paragraph? Are you saying gnome-tweak-tool will work in both GNOME 2 and GNOME 3? What you wrote sounds like it's saying that gnome-tweak-tool will *cause both GNOME 3 and GNOME 2 to be installed, even if they weren't before*. (Also, please note that GNOME Fallback is actually GNOME 3, not GNOME 2. By design, it looks similar to GNOME 2, but it is part of the GNOME 3 desktop environment and it uses version 3 libraries rather than version 2 libraries.) – Eliah Kagan Aug 10 '12 at 20:33
