Many months ago someone posted a way to convert most aqua buttons and sliders and list headers etc to metal style. I installed it and loved it and forgot about it until I got my new iMac the other day and now I can't figure for the life of me how to do it again. Someone clue me in!

Here's how I want the buttons and drop downs etc to look....



And here's how mine look now with the default aqua look.... bleah



They both have appearance set to graphite and another metal scrollbars extras2 hack installed.

I love the U.S., but we need some time apart.

You have the extras2.rsrc installed, but I think you need to mod SArtFile.bin to get all of the buttons themed. There were a few similar themes like that that came out after Leopard themeing was cracked, but I'm guessing that one is iLeopard?

You could try the iLeopard installer or Magnifique (comes with iLeopard, among other themes) to get the full button resources installed.
