For those of you who are familiar with the talented design group, fourimpressions, I'll be currently making ports of their Visual Styles for the mac.
Aesthetic Groove by FOURIMPRESSIONS.

Coming soon for the Apple.

Been a while since I last visited their site, good to see it works in Safari now.
I'm looking forward to see some of their work become available on mac, and I think Aesthetic Groove is an awsome choice because it's so completely different from the numerous metal/blue and glossy themes we already have over here.
Keep it up, grune

That's the most impossible to navigate site I've ever attempted to use. Also, that preview made me want to claw my eyes out.

Septuple post! Quadruple word score!

I'm sorry that you are such an incompetent being. The navigation seems simple enough to me - a standard nav bar with drop down menus. But hey, not all people can handle that. If you see something wrong with my screenshot, perhaps you can give constructive advice on what should be done. Telling us that you want to claw your eyes out help no one.

I wouldnt sweat comments like that. Around here, there are always a few "bad apples" who come in and give oh-so-constructive comments.
IMHO, I am not a big fan of brown/beige anything, so I dont know if I would use this, but, it does look very sharp. A constructive comment- you might want to consider making the black text on brown, white (like you have it in the menu preview). It is MUCH easier on the eyes that way, and would make the theme more usable. Also, the close, max, min buttons on the window seem a little narrow/tall to me. Even a pixel or two wider would seem to fit better, then again, I haven't seen the original theme, so the tall/skinny might be dead on for what you are going for.
Keep up the good work!

that site is very easy to navigate...
the theme...though i would never touch it, since brown isn't a color i like, it is something new, which is good. make sure you finish it though.

Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the criticism. I'll definitely get to changing around those font colors. I actually don't have shapeshifter and am currently working with only DLTAs. But of course I'll change the font color sceme for GuiKit users. The buttons unfortunately, i think im going to keep that way. It's the way they look on the windows version, and i want to keep things as accurate as possible.

In the future, it's very likely =O)
I don't know when I'll be able to get to it. These ports take longer than I thought they would.
Does anyone have any good advice on how to efficiently create ports. There are just so many different items in the theme file that need to be replaced.

ThemePark <> PhotoShop.
Just keep up the good work, grune - no need to rush.
I myself was once tempted to get this 4imp porting going, but my daily job simply won't let me.
Meanwhile, I gladly find out you're going for the accuracy approach

Icons are very nice, menu bar is pretty useless (might be a bit more readable at mac gamma seen as I'm on a pc at the minute), would like to see some icons for the tool bars because I find text to be pretty backward.
