Beautify your Zorin Pro/Core 16/17

You're looking for some fancy things for Gnome? Look no further.

jelly Mode

The easiest one to enable is Jelly Mode which comes default with Zorin OS. Simple go to Zorin Appearance --> Interface --> JellyMode

Magic/Fire Mode

First ensure that you have the tool to use extra extensions on Gnome. Open the terminal;

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-prefs

Next go to: Burn My Windows - GNOME Shell Extensions
and enable Burn My Windows extension. Make sure you have added gnome extension addon to your browser to do so.
Lastly open the Extension app (you'll find it in your menu) to tweak the effects.

Transparent Window Moving (Zorin OS 17)

You want your moving windows transparent while moving them?

Get the extension here: Transparent Window Moving - GNOME Shell Extensions

Blur The Desktop (Zorin OS 17)

You can blur your Desktop or make it transparent by this extension: Blur my Shell - GNOME Shell Extensions

Enjoy!

Do you have any tips/tricks to enhance Gnome, let me know so I can add it.

Ooooo, I like it so much! :heart_eyes:

I am already using Jelly Mode with Zorin OS, cause like you said, it came with it.

But I like those party effects for bringing the window up and closing it too. So I want that, I am gonna have to get that. Anything to improve my I Little Pony experience, to make it even more amazing, I am going to do.

Extension, ready or not, here I come. :grin:

Magic eh!
If you can do Magic, then you are qualified to help solve some illogical sound issues we get on here.

Icon theme works but it doesn't detect the shell or application theme for whatever reason

Make sure that the theme isn't "double folder'd".
