You may be aware of Ubuntu Tweak application, it is great utility but it is no longer in development (discontinued) and developer abandoned this project 4 years ago. The last release was for Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty/Linux Mint 17.x but the latest release also works fine in Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial/Linux Mint 18.x. Ubuntu Tweak was mainly designed to manage Ubuntu system and desktop settings but it can also work in Ubuntu based distributions (some of the features won't work if you are not using Unity desktop). It is easier to use, free and was released under the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2.
This utility offers many features which you can't find in system and desktop settings options. It lets you change lots of things in your system such as: adding scripts to file manager, running cleaner, change themes, change login screen background and so on.

Features:
  • Change Fonts
  • Change system sounds
  • Change themes and icons
  • Configure login screen (lightdm)
  • Options for Desktop icons
  • Configuration for Unity
  • Workspace settings
  • File Manager settings
  • Add scripts to File Manager
  • Assign default program to file types
  • Source editor
  • System Cleaner
  • and more.

Install Ubuntu Tweak 0.6 on Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin/Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot/Linux Mint 12 Lisa

  • Only support Ubuntu 12.04/11.10 and later (and of course: Linux Mint 12)
  • Support three major desktop environments: Unity, Unity-2D, GNOME Shell
  • More tweaks have been added, E.G. Unity Settings
  • Solve some critical bugs of the Janitor and improve the usability
The feature I like the most in Ubuntu Tweak 0.6 is that you can use it to change the GTK or icon theme. So you no longer have to use GNOME Tweak Tool (which installs GNOME Shell automatically).
You can also change the fonts, login screen wallpaper, tweak Nautilus and many other stuff. You'll even find an option to turn on Natural Scrolling (under Tweaks > Miscellaneous).
