I am using Ubuntu 11.10 and i wanted to change colors in Ambiance/Radiance themes, by default it has orange and i wanted to change it to Blue,
I tried using gnome-color-chooser, but it didn't work?
any other ideas?

What you have do is copy radiance as backup and change setting.ini file in themes
by using.
gksu gedit /usr/share/themes/Radiance/gtk-3/settings.ini
Edit:
nselected_bg_color:#f07746
So it says:
nselected_bg_color:#7FADFD
And do the same with gtk-2, using:
gksu gedit /usr/share/themes/Radiance/gtk-2/gtkrc
Otherwise gtk-2 applications like chrome etc will have old orange color
and you are done. Reload the theme using gnome-tweak-tool.
Every GNOME-3 theme works with unity-3d perfectly but with 2D it has fallback window control problem when maximized (means in global panel it has fallback window controls which are ugly as hell, even the themes have unity folder in them and they work fine with 3D)
The colour used above [#7FADFD] is just one example of any number of hex colours that can be employed. Refer to here for other hex colour codes.
