Are there any 3rd party jQuery UI themes?

Question

I'm a little tired of the jQuery UI themes.

Are there any free 3rd-party themes that look a little slicker?

Answer 1

Or take the standard jquery-ui.css and nab the parts of it that apply to you e.g. if you're only using tabs then just grab all the tabs css or more if you're using multiple aspects. So for example if you're just using the tabs part take this small section from the

.ui-tabs { position: relative; padding: .2em; zoom: 1; } /* position: relative prevents IE scroll bug (element with position: relative inside container with overflow: auto appear as "fixed") */
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav { margin: 0; padding: .2em .2em 0; }
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li { list-style: none; float: left; position: relative; top: 1px; margin: 0 .2em 1px 0; border-bottom: 0 !important; padding: 0; white-space: nowrap; }
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li a { float: left; padding: .5em 1em; text-decoration: none; }
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-tabs-selected { margin-bottom: 0; padding-bottom: 1px; }
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-tabs-selected a, .ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-state-disabled a,     .ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-state-processing a { cursor: text; }
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-nav li a, .ui-tabs.ui-tabs-collapsible .ui-tabs-nav li.ui-tabs-selected a { cursor: pointer; } /* first selector in group seems obsolete, but required to overcome bug in Opera applying cursor: text overall if defined elsewhere... */
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-panel { display: block; border-width: 0; padding: 1em 1.4em; background: none; }
.ui-tabs .ui-tabs-hide { display: none !important; }

and then just style change as you please.

One alternative that goes along with my personal style is "Aristo" for jQuery UI!

See the Link!

See the Demo!

See the GitHub!

Nonetheless, themes provided by jQuery UI ThemeRoller were only meant to be a starting point for users to create their own theme.
