To whoever PM'd me (Sorry, I deleted you) the original screenshot of this mod is on page 116 of this thread, 4th post, click the Black Harddrive. It shows more elements.

Yep, that's my son. Future Kid, get it?

Does anyone know which program he is using to have a list of his programs.. on the bottom of the menubar. it seems really handy and great option instead of using the dock.

Correct. A few pages back, he mentioned some of the steps he did to get it that way (which I'm still working on myself).

Thanks Makki. It actually goes quite well with the Fluid screensaver and the haxie that pours water from the progress bar. Am looking for a better HD icon, maybe something more fishy.

Nope, use them all regularly and one advantage of going to the PB17 is the extra space to stuff a couple of more icons and still have plenty of room to go.

Besides, do you just backseat drive? Let's see your menubar?

Links to widgets and icons please!

S.V.P.?

AveTenebrae · Sep 28, 2004, 11:32 AM

the icons aren't release (perhaps one days if i have enough of them)
i can give menubar icons for monitor, battery and airport if somebody want.
in geektool widgets are shell commands or applescripts so :

clock : date +"%H:%M:%S"

ip : curl http://www.yoursite.com/ip.php
where ip.php is <?php echo getenv("REMOTE_ADDR"); ?>

CPU Usage : top -l 1 | grep 'CPU usage' | cut -c 33-80

Calendar : see this thread

iTunes : osascript ~/Your/Scripts/Path/iTunes.scpt | iconv -f utf-8 -t ucs-2-internal
You can grab my script here

the font is pixelzim 3x5 available here

hope it's help you

I dont understand what you want with Kol's site for, he only ports mac stuff, he has so far what i know never made any skins of his own, at least no mac skins, only ports of what already been out.

I just want the Aero window thing, the desktop is just a little too XP. A konfab widget of that window would be kinda cool just to drop on your desktop where ever you want.

No. It's going to be my Boot Panel once I resize it. I had to put it on a colored BG for the glass to look any good.
If anyone wants it, let me know and I'll post a link.

Yeah, the slate & glass elements give a Aero a really sleek, refined look. I love it! I'm a bit stunned to see something from Microsoft that beats Apple's Aqua. I like where Apple seems to be taking Aqua (the shininess of the blue elements in Tiger, etc.) but they'll have to continue development to keep up with Aero's contemporary look.

Yeah, Aqua will still look great in 2006 or whenever Longhorn finally comes out. Still, I'd love to see it taken further with Core Image effects, etc. Until then, let's keep our fingers crossed for transparency-capable windows. It'll be great to have more flexibility in theming OS X.

Right! Glad to have that cleared up. I was confused b/c I had Grassy in my AmericanPsycho folder and it fits there too well!

Hey that font you are using is really nice. What's it called, and where can I get it? It looks kinda like Helvedica Neue..

Edit: I'm really liking that title bar too...
