1. Windowshade X
2. Default Folder X
3. Mighty Mouse
I also have to use SmoothStripes, or an other theme. I don't often use other themes than my own, because I like to have full control of the UI. When I first started using OS X, I used the Quicksilver theme and I could not stand the fact that the author had not changed finder back, view and path buttons..

Yeah, I cant imagine a theme developer using anyone else's theme; afterall if your not making the GUI you want to use day to day it's time t get back to the drawing board eh?

WatercolorX Theme
WindowShade X
BeOS icons
That's about it. Other than that, my desktop is pretty standard, except for a custom boot logo. Heck, I'm even using one of the Apple-supplied background images (Abstract 5) right now!

I do most of my own hacks to get a super consistand Aqua look. I have changed icons, toolbar buttons, interfaces in IB and ResEdit etc to improve and hack my Mac.
I use (or have used) 1. Mighty Mouse (for the enhanced QE shadows on my non QE machine)
2. MacBoot (to change the boot logo screen to the Standard Blue colour and added an X look classic happy mac saying hello for startup.
3. ROOT. (to hack verything that people sholdn't)

Yeah, that's true. Although I have not created a original theme that I feel completely satisfied with.. Maybe I will succeed with that some time.

Fluid peaked my interested, and asked me what iCeCoFeE was. Now I would like to know. I've searched for it here and on google, but nothing came up. So what is iCeCoFeE?

It add Services menu into your contextual menu so you can access the services by right-click instead of dragging the mouse to Apple all the time.
ICeCofEE 1.3.1
This is something Apple should do in the first place but I'd rather them to focus on important stuffs first
