:cough::cough: I'll answer as soon as the dust clears. that's gotta be a record of some sort. and I would have done the same thang - why create a new one when there is a perfectly good thread already started. nuf rambling. Did you try to GuiTweak the solid green one? I am making the assumption that you are on Tiger.

I see you've chosen the excellent nonmetal widgets version soooo - here is the down and dirty and probably in the long run fastest way to battle your way to the results you want. You will not need FrodoShop so don't panic.
1. Get a copy of ThemePark.
2. Apply the Ocean Blue version, logout, launch TP. Create new theme. Add [Be sure to go into options at "My Spiffy Theme" and enable MenuEnhancer.] Go under elements, add all applications [this won't affect skinning of iT7 and the like because they are not updated - yet - but it will start the process for you.] Save that file.
3. Apply Clean Green, and follow the same process but adding the apps is your choice. Be sure to logout or elements from Ocean Blue will still be left as debris. Save TPARK file.
4. Now you have two of 'em!!
5. Reload Ocean Blue. Logout [you're gettin' the idea by now]. Launch the Ocean Blue AND Clean Green TPARK files. Go to Global Elements > Menubar and Menus. Copy and Paste the elements from OB to CG and save a new file. Export GuiKit...
6. Share screenie of finished work as macnn's newest MODder!

PM me with any specific questions but I am sure you will hit this out of the TPARK.
