YES, EXACTLY! 100% perfect port! If anyone could do that, it would be a astounding feat of triumph. You've come close, but you could be much closer. Good luck to you.
EDIT:
Nope, links still not working. One thing also. How do you change the fonts of the various items in the theme? I really think you should use mcpinty's font for file, edit, view etc. items. It is really quite good.

well I've come as close as I'm going to come then. I have purposely taken out some shortcuts cause they have no relevance on a windows system. Also I will never add the apple commands to the menus either, for many of the same reasons stated by someone else in another post. Anyways thats why it wont ever be 100% perfect, this is windows afterall, we should only keep whats relevant to us, and improve upon it

Actually, you do have your menu items in the same font, nevermind that. But still I urge you to change those bar items fonts.

You were right, they didnt look exactly like Lucida Grande, but they looked close enough for me. I have however found a version of Lucida Grande that is perfect, but a requirement may be XP SP1 because I dont remember the font working 100% properly before SP1. I have incorporated the font in new versions, and I will allow a few testers preferably from different platforms that support OB, to test it out before I release it.
So if anyone wants to test (I'm only taking 5 and I want them to be from 2k, XP non SP1 and XP SP1 preferably.) post here and I'll send a link probably tomorrow.
Chris
I love the dock, and would be really happy to test it out for you. I am running XP w/ SP1
Thanks
Ok I'll limit it to 3 testers, 2k XP SP1 and XP non SP1, one position left!! 
I'll PM you guys probably tomorrow with a download link.
Chris
Ok, Here's a little sneakypeak of what it looks like after a few revisions.
What I've done:
-Added icons to the "Go" menu to match jaguars.
-Added menubar icon mouseover images (dull gray)
- Changed the fonr to what I believe looks pretty damn close if not a duplicate of the OS X menubar font
- A few minor tweaks, shortcut changes.
So here's a sneakpeak of the Graphite version (you know what the rest look like so I wont bother to show them )

How can I change the font?

I posted how to manually change OB font's in a thread below.
Ok, I still need a win2k tester, any volunteers? They are all finished, so once tested I can release them
Chris
Holy crap, absolutely amazing!! You have really created the ultimate bar. Wow. Excellent job fixing those fonts! They look superb.
update: I've added another button, a windows flag, which will popup the programs menu for quick access (like the start menu, but a lil simpler )

**** Binary your ObjectBar themes rule me! Thanks man 
Keep up the lllllovely work! and show us a comparison with the original, just like mcpinty did (too lazy to do it myself )
Andrea 
very nice looking bar. can't wait to download it

Andrea
Dont have to do a comparison, it looks virtually 100% the same
Well I guess I dont get a 2k Beta tester. If it's screwed up for them oh well
*edit* I've sent out beta builds to testers who offered. I'll release the bars once they have replied with their experiences (if all is good that is)
Chris
Come on, we want a comparison. We want to see how close it really is with our own eyes! Just post a quick screenie for us to feast our eyes on!!
P.S.
We had better be able to get rid of that new windows flag you put! I dont want anything windows on my bar!
EDIT:
If its ok with you Binary, I think we'd all like to get this before XMAS! Maybe as an early christmas present or something. Please, thanks!

you can rightclick - remove item...
I think not wanting anything windows on the bar is going a bit overboard, lets not get fanatic here... We are using windows afterall.
And I said I'll release it whenever the testers reply back to me
Chris
Ok Guys.
I've had two people test, one says the font doesnt work properly for him, the other had the same success as me.
So, I will release the theme, but It may not look right for some people, especially those not on XP or XP SP1.
Please post your specs (like any font progs u may have installed, also OS) if it doesnt work for you.
here's the previews:
Aqua Blue:
Aqua Graphite:
Jaguar Fur:
*click on pictures for larger versions*
Here's the Link:
*here's the old theme's link for those that have problems with the new build. If I get enough requests for the updated version (from people in which this font doesnt work), I will make another pack with the old fonts.*
Enjoy! And a Merry Christmas to all of you!!
Chris
