If you'd like to have Emerald theme on your mint 13 here is the recepi:

Type in the terminal:

sudo apt-get install git autoconf libtool libwnck1.0-cil-dev libwnck-dev intltool libdecoration0-dev gawk

wget cgit.compiz.org/fusion/decorators/emerald/snapshot/emerald-0.9.5.tar.gz
tar -zxvf emerald-0.9.5.tar.gz
cd emerald-0.9.5
./autogen.sh && make clean && make distclean && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && sudo make install

Then run:

CompizConfig Settings Manager (CCSM) to integrate Emerald with Compiz, from unity dash type “ccsm” Navigate to effects – window decartoration, Change the command parameters “/usr/bin/compiz-decorator” to “/usr/bin/emerald“.
