Hi PhutureX - it is something I commented on in the feedback section of the RC of 8. I am at work so not sat at Zorin - please be patient for one of the other mods - in the mean time you could look at:

Menu | System Tools | Preferences | Tweak Tool

Hi,

try this and make your changes:

I have never tried it so I cannot really say whether it works or not!.

Hi,

this is sadly the case with several themes in Ubuntu, I like the "Gnomish" set but they fail to show certain details with the newer versions of Ubuntu, try this theme set instead which has quite a few options for darker themes:
