The latest MacAddict has an article on making over your desktop.

Listed Mentions:

Kudos to all!

An obvious oversight was not mentioning Swizcore Studios. Kevin's just as prolific as Max....

Steve, we WANT themeing on X!

Thank you but I actually need Max's help on fixing a bug right now

It is odd that they didnt include my stuff since they did include my stuff in their special edition Mac Customization issue in December.

Congrads to all the themers, Swiz not getting a mention is a bit of a joke. Ah well, neither did funmac. But we'll always have that Wired Article to look at

Congrads to all who were mention and to all in general who have anything to do with themeing.

Does anyone want to scan the page for those who haven't seen it yet?

What issue might you be referring to? I have the February issue, it's black with a mirror drive g4 on the front of it. I do not see any article about theming in it? Do I have the wrong issue or did I just miss it?

At least they didnt censor out the "Swizcore Studio Site Sample" on the theme preview.
Oh well, Max does own the popularity market in OSX theming.

Yeah drop them an email, they may do a small follow up or print a small blurb. Worth a shot
