Thunar, in contrast to many other file managers, is using the
"inode-directory" icon for plain folders - which the theme you linked to
is missing.
You can simply execute this in every of the "places/" subdirectory of
the theme to create the necessary links:
ln -s folder.png inode-directory.png
If the theme is not picking it up, you can refresh the cache via:
gtk-update-icon-cache /path/to/DarkPurpy
(will need root permissions if system path obviously)
