I love the theme's idea, but it's totally broken for me.
Also, please add instructions on how to uninstall to the README.

Thanks :)

As I developed this theme on a retina screen, I expected it to be broken on standard resolution.
I want to fix it, and I want to find a way for this theme to be compatible to any resolution.
But I need some time to fix it.
I will post an update as soon as I can, with some minor fix for you to be able to use the theme :)

About the uninstallation, I did crap, and I am truely sorry, I am going to spend some time now to help you fix that.

I might need your linux distribution, and your confidence in typing terminal command.

Here is what we are going to do :
During the installation, it basically overwrite the global theme, with the new theme, without a backup.
There is one file you need to replace with the original theme, that is /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/gnome-shell.css

You can either reinstall gnome-shell to overwrite this file with the original one, or directly paste the content of the original file.

I had to reinstall gnome-shell to get the original theme back.

sudo yum reinstall gnome-shell

I liked your theme more but I couldn't read the side panel or calendar's text.
I'd like to fix it but I tried editing most of the references to fonts and didn't notice any change.

What do you mean by side panel ?
Could you show me some screenshots ?

I can help you find the references, but as I don't have any non-retina screen, I won't be able to test it.

Stating the obvious first, did you build it after editing ?
You can test the build chain by changing the @high color in gnome-shell/gnome-shell.less and see if it changes as a result.

If you don't want to reinstall gnome-shell in case the theme crash, you can change the install location in gnome-shell/build.yml and use gnome-tweak-tool to change theme :

install:
  src:
    - 'gnome-shell.css'
    - 'assets'
  dest:
    "/<your home directory>/.themes"

I did build after editing;
The 'side panel' is what's shown in the original screenshot, the panel that pops up on the top-right hotcorner, I don't know how it's called.
I'll edit the path and test again, thanks.
