Wow this one looks great! Black and red is the best possible combination
I have only one complaint, the title bar looks too large, the lightblack ( ) of the title bar goes into the toolbar that looks a bit weird.

Will you make a wallpaper for it, and if yes which resolutions?

A solid black menubar? Wow, I've never heard of anything like that before. Where did you get THAT idea?

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

Yea, no way hu? Theme looks fimliar. Seriously take it as a compliment. I am not passing it off as mine. Just fu**ed with it so I could get the black menu bar is all. I like the menus gone if there is nothing useable. And something that flows with the desktop.

nice .. but with each variation of color .. you'll need to change your ibook icon =P ... it already needs the black menubar ... hehe .. where did u get the desktop wallpaper? also .. it reminds me a bit of NEOS which was one of my favorite themes .. the problem was a lack of good dark folder/harddrive icons ... i'm still waiting on calabi and aluminum alloy icons .. *cry*

Some variant suggestions:

Black/orange

Black/neon green

Black/yellow

Black/white

Black/red (of course)

Looking good! And I have to join the "that title bar is too fat" crowd...

What's with all this posting on here again? This Xidius guy hasn't even posted in ages as far as I know, and the last progress on this theme was ages ago. Though I'd like to see this theme released, this topic was and should be dead.
