Hehe I knew someone would end up doing this.
Nice job

mac15 · Mar 30, 2004, 10:58 PM

The cool thing is there is no resource editing. Which would make this theme a piece of cake creating

boy8cookie · Mar 30, 2004, 11:05 PM

you would think so, but it still takes time

Can anyone say CMD-OPTION-CONTROL-8?

d4nth3m4n · Mar 31, 2004, 07:16 AM

yeha, but then everything is negative... movies, images, websites.

does this mean that there will be an influx of inverted themes? cant wait for jet black or guipod to hit

JoE950 · Mar 31, 2004, 11:09 AM

this is odd. but whats odder is that the text is unreadable.. why you do that for mr cookie?

FB Eye · Mar 31, 2004, 11:22 AM

boy8cookie, I certainly hope this is some kind of humour... right?

You should call it CAC8 (Control+Alt+Command+8)

YOU CAN INVERT THE ENITIRE SYSTEM IN THIS FASHION, but you lose the colors. There is no yellow or blue or whatever. If you don't like it then fine, this is made for myself and if you want to use it then great.

Twister · Mar 31, 2004, 05:10 PM

I think it's looking pretty good! Just needs some fixing on the black text colors (on black) and if you could put that shinny orange in the menu over state that'd rock!!

Er. No, you don't loose the colors. Press Ctrl+Alt+Pretzel+8, then open the Universal Access Prefpane and click Set Display to Grayscale and you get the colors back AND inverted. They aren't as bright/saturated as your theme, though.

Really cute idea, BTW

If you could just fix the text color issue, it'd be a great relief for eyes after a work day of staring into bright Aqua.

boy8cookie · Mar 31, 2004, 06:57 PM

getting there fixed text color, finished safari skin too,

newd screenie

p.s.
Orcinus

doing that only gives back some color. the color in the scroll bars for example is still missing

Twister · Mar 31, 2004, 07:30 PM

Ohhhh so nice. It just gets better!!

xanthic eye · Mar 31, 2004, 07:42 PM

i always thought inverted aqua was pretty cool looking. thanks for making this.

boy8cookie · Mar 31, 2004, 07:52 PM

I would like to know what skins you guys want/ need? So far I have Safari and iChat cause I use those alot. What else? Shold I just do them all?

Actually if you want to invert the screen and save colors you can use the program Black Light. It works well and what's fun is to use it then press ctrl-opt-cmd-8. Since ctrl-opt-cmd-8 removes colors you get a regular screen except its all black & white. But the program still poses the problem of still inverting movies and other graphics, so making the theme still makes sense.

WHA!?

AWSOME!

Hoho...it's on fire...yes yes...really cool!

Also...the theme is more like (Pretzel - C, Prezel - I, Prezel - V) * 1000 = I'll respect anyone with the energy.

boy8cookie · Apr 1, 2004, 11:29 AM

actually its (command-return; command-i; command-tab; command-option-return) x 100000
