Why would you want to know which theme is the best out there? Everyone have their own taste.

I want to know what people thinks, because... I think a theme is something that a user can use to work and feel comfortable at the same time... sometimes a theme is really cool, but at the end of the day you don't want it anymore.. I'm not asking this to get you mad, I am asking because I'm looking for a neutral theme, that fit both needs, the appearance and the working ambient, just like AQUA... but sometimes I hate it too....

Dont be mad for my question... its just a question...I just want to know what people think about the themes out there.

jesus!!

Oops, got you mixed up with the wrong person. Creating threads where one is not needed seems to be your specialty, however.

SmoothStripes. Opaque. Square. Period.

I love QNX, ChosenOS, and Raphsodized, but I always come back to SmoothStripes.

Alumnite X by a mile for me.

So nice and neutral, yet cool and 3d looking.

Brushed still.

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

Same as me, every time I tried some new themes, I always went back to Aqua. Aqua is truly high-quality and beautiful.

I'm with Mr_Frost.... Milk is absolutely ruling class.

Anxiously anticipating BBX Utopia though.

I love aqua, but I like the clear menus in some of the themes.

Do you guys know any themes that have clear menues that resemble aqua? e.g. like BBX Mercury menus except it keeps everything else like Aqua.

I just don't like that fact that BBX Mercury changes everything else for you, like the Brush Metal look in Apple apps.

I tried some themes and have converted both of my Macs back to Aqua. Simple elegance...

EDIT: Typo.
