I don't believe it's Max's version. I believe it's the version from a while ago. I have the one that was release a while ago...it's nice, but I know Max's will be great. It will be here soon......

Sorry for being so impatient...

The diskimage is dated 02/12/02 11:38 PM, so I think its a recent version.
It also contains notes from both authors

Anyways I guess Max is in control of the situation, so I'll just wait for the official version.

Nice! What are you waiting for? He already gave us the link!

I think it's wicked. However, if the desktop picture doesn't match the theme, you'll just find the theme freakin' ugly. Put a nice picture and you'll get the wickedest interface. EVER.

I love it! Hay toolbar icons would be nice.
Also the alert sounds don't work under OS X, I'm going to try and convert them to .aiff so they work.

I'll post a screen shot once I get it all setup just right.

Oh wow, it's out! Thanks Max and William. Amazing job!
Gonna install it as soon as I get home from school

And what are you guys talking about, with Minority Report on DVD on December 17th? It's been out here since Friday (Sweden). That's gotta the first time a movie has been released in Sweden before the U.S.

I admire the craftmanship, but I must question the move to a theme that looks as if it is being run on a B&W monitor. I, for one, like color and just don't get it.
It's the devil's way now.

Hmm, doesn't look B&W to me. Then again it could just be my eyes adding that graphitish shade. I'm all for color but its just not always a good idea to throw tons color into a theme. Like, its supposed to look good for anyone right? It shouldn't distract you, should it? This theme just has the right look.

This theme actually has more colors than most themes, since it's actually purple, not gray. I see your point though, but I like the look.
