Ok I really donlt like the Aqua candy blue stuff that much. I was wondering if there was a theme app that works well. I would like to have the same scroll bars and stuff like iTunes, and have the rest of the GUI match with gray buttons instead of the blue. Is this something that's possible. I never looked into theming OS X, so I don't even know where to start. Are there good apps and bad apps, is there one worth using, or are they all crap like with craposoft ones?

    but it doesn't work with 10.5 yet. There's also themepark but I don't know if that works or not.

    thanx! I don't plan on upgrading to 10.5 for a while, so that doesn't bother me I'm looking for a almost identical theme, I just want to make all the blue accents gray or something not obnoxious.

    Simplest Solution?. . . . Try "graphite" in System Preferences under the heading "Appearance."



    Best of luck, fellow B/W friend.
