History of Aqua ... depicted?

Hello!

Could someone provide a few screenshots indicating the evolution of Aqua interface and the changes from one version to another?

I just thought that it would be nice to have a thread like that, as we all love Aqua, but each one loves some different Aqua than the other. As a non-Mac user (and so sorry for that), I'd love to see when "traffic light" buttons sunk on the interface, which stripes go with which brushed background and buttons, etc.

I know I could have done it myself cutting and pasting screenshots, but I have more confidence in Mac users for the real Aqua thing.

Thanks a lot and have a nice day!

I know the window controls "sunk" in Panther - that was also when the new appearance for tabs made its debut, as well as when most of the stripyness was removed from the interface. I think 10.2 was when the most visible change in general widgets was made, from quasi-realism to the smoother, more plasticky look. I can dig up a few samples of the 10.1 buttons and things...
