I liked how it worked in the previous version, I keep it on graphite because the color variants are too bright but there are still some nice orange highlights. But if I want it bright I turn it to aqua..

Oh well I'll see what it's like when I dl.

thanks, it's a really nice theme.

First of all, thanks for the update bOOzo.
I was really excited when i saw this thread and specially when i read you made a light gray variation, but when i installed i was rather disappointed with it.

Please don't get me wrong, i love all your themes (in fact i cycle through most of them on a regular basis) and i really appreciate all the hard work you put into them.

My "disapointement" about the light variation of Rhapsodized was because i was expecting a full ligher variation, including menu and title bars, and maybe tabs. That being said, and after using Rhapsodized Light for a few minutes i strongly believe that the full light variation would look much better, and it would be a better option in the sense of it being a complete color variation of the original darker gray version.

I don't expect you to make the full variation just because of my request, but maybe you should think about it. It would be good to know what does other members of this forum, and specially, Rhapsodized fans like me, think about this.

One last thing, the other changes you made to the theme, like the corrected progress bars, the smaller apple menu and the new brushed look are great additions to the theme!

Thank you for being so honest
I did not know how far I should go with the L version, so I stayed at lighter backgrounds. It would be pretty easy to lighten menubar, menus and document titlebar though. Tell me how you want it to look (a mockup would be great) and I'll fix it sometime.

Thanks for getting this done. I really like the grey variation.

FWIW, I'm with arena, as far as a full light version goes. The dark finder widgets look out of place on the light toolbar background. But I and NOT complaining.
