Is this site safe? Being sort of a security nut, im Wondering if it is safe to install Macbuntu theme, and icon pack from noobslab.com.I have would not be installing any of the other things (lightdm, splash etc.)and, if it is not safe please point me towards alternatives that work similarly to this. Thank you in advance.

Except for docky, it's just a bunch of data (xml and png), so for a certain definition of "safe" (if you already have installed PPAs) then, yes, it's safe...

Now, before you go ahead, please note that one of the few vectors for getting malware onto your computer is a PPA, so never install a PPA because someone tells you so (including me). Always use your own personal judgement and do some research before installing a PPA! Having said that, a PPA with 1000s of users mentioned in numerous articles is always better then installing ppa:maffia.it/BotNet with a few 100 users! ;-)
