Something Brewing On The Mac Customizing Side

Seems the top OS X Modders/Skinners have joined forces...

(BBX, Swiz, Max, "Smeger" and Unsanity )

Seems Swizcore departure was exagerated, even by him.

Looks like it maybe an APE enabled theme switcher. If you're not familiar with APE, its a great preference panel based set of utilities using plugin architecture for doing various mods and enhancements for OS X. And was made by Unsanity.

Yep just a good old theme switcher that doesnt need to replace system files.

Pretty decent with a pretty 20$ price tag lol

#80007

nice. I'll post it when it comes out and i don't hope someone else will.

Damn, i wish the best xp skinners got together and made something like that. Then again we do have style xp :6

Wait a second... THE 18 's TODAY Holy bunji stick, its been released today!!!!???

#80242

Well... Windowblinds is a good themeswitcher that doesn't make you replace system files. It's just that most of the good Windows skinners got lured over to MsStyles when Windowblinds was still pretty buggy and slow. A lot of the best WindowBlinds skinners actually went on to do work in the GUI and design fields and actually get payed for their work. Kind of like Dangeruss. Everyone remember him?

Inkman and XerO-

there is a small group forming who will specialize in making your Windows desktop look like the new MacOSX Aqua GUI.  so far the group consists of chris clough (a.k.a. CyCoPaTh), chris mcdaniel (a.k.a. straytoaster or deadzombie), kris mcginnes (a.k.a. Drakon), mark nadelin, and myself (doug hoxworth a.k.a. disciple). our objective is to create a website that will provide info, screenshots, skins, programs, etc. that will help windows PC users "aquafy" their desktop environment.  we were all wondering whether you would like to join our group and contribute what you can.  the website is being developed by drakon with assistance by me. we haven't resolved where the site will reside and what our site will be called.  we may call ourselves aquasoft although other names have been suggested. we also haven't discussed whether we'll just provide a collection of skins for each app or whether we'll create one skin for each app (i.e., one regular aqua windowblinds skin as opposed to one from each).  we also envision creating applications and programs to help users "aquafy" their desktop. do either of you know any programming languages? let me know if either of you are interested in joining? thanks.

That's what I meant. That I've been using Xer0 since Aquasoft started.

BOW BEFORE THE AQUA-TESTAMENT!!! :bow:

@ Keieieieth (I hate the "ie" rule) I thought I was the only one that saw that. But first it was a post done by Xero, then a post by Xer0, and I thought that they were the same person. I'm confused :blink: .

#80447

I really need to make an avatar and sig, I just haven't gotten around to it.

#80451

:moon: u shud spend more time ona sig then on looking old articles up

#80614

Bah, it's old e-mail... it only took a second to find. A sig would take a lot more time.

#80624

yeah, please the sig and the avatar would help us diferenciatte you two a lot easier, its a tad confusing ;)

#80629

maybe u shud spend some time on one :D

#80630

And please don't use an orange color. That wouldn't help me at all.

@ Xero - Now, now, let's be kind people.
