Well, perhaps this is how you got the shot�

It's funny, I was just thinking the other day how much I like Good Grey (I'm using it now on my desk system), and how nice it would be to have a black version for my laptop (I only use darkish themes on it to save battery life). It really is a clean, classic theme.

People,
Martin here, the author of Good Grey.Nice to see that people still have an interest in Good Grey since I'm not that big on updates an promoting the theme. It's also interesting to read about peoples ideas on how to improve or alter the theme.
However, I'm really not to keen on dark themes. Not at all actually. I've tried most of them and even though they're really slick productions, I find it quite hard to actually use them on a daily basis.
So there you basicly have your answer. I won't make a black version of Good Grey and probably not even a darker one. There might be some slight changes and add-ons when it comes to the colors but that'll have to wait until Tiger is released.
As of now, I'm really satisfied with the way Good Grey looks and work. It's actually the only theme I use. (Might be a bit egoistic )
And... to all people that have emailed me about Good Grey: Thank you! You're my life support!

I love Good Grey... and I have to agree with organ (thanks for the theme btw!)... the dark themes, which are nice, just aren't useable under OSX.

I thank you for doing this. I have low vision and hate white backgrounds on my computer. One of the reasons I work on PC's is the ability to change colors in my apps. We have picked up the new Power Mac G5 and I am finding it very hard to find a good dark theme. I have not used yours yet but will search on getting it. If you can make more without the white backgrounds with black fonts I high five ya.
Thanks

Just the sheer contrast between the black and white there makes my eyes hurt.

Why not a Good Ice Blue?, dot mac site has some "snaps" on that livery and they look really nice.

Try System Preferences/Universal Access/Switch to White on Black

Martin,
Thanks for your Good Grey theme. It's simply the best theme out there for those who look for minimalist themes with style.
Will you be updating it for Tiger, and if so, can you give an e.t.a? Thanks.
