Here is NeXTXBlack theme. As you can see from the pic it looks seamless with X-Windows/X-Darwin/Orborox-X. It is a far more professional looking theme that allows people to concentrate on their work rather than glossy buttons. I will make it available once I can figure out how to make the title bar text white.

I have already completed the NeXT theme for OSX. It doesnt have black title bars but theres no reason to have black title bars because Cocoa apps cannot have altered text titlebar colors. You will never be able to read the titles with black titlebar and black text.

Without the black title bars or correct widgets it doesn't look like NeXT or flow with X-Windows/Orobor. I hope the Cocoa title bar text will be fixed by someone who finds a way around it. Your link doesn't work but here is a pic of the real NeXT:

THe link is fixed now, its been a while since I posted the it. I agree that black titlebars are important too, Hopefully this becomes possible.

This is a pic of NeXT theme running on Windows. It works exactly like the original NeXT and is very speedy. Also in the pic is WinAmp with a Quicktime skin.
