After much sweat on Sunday night, I am pleased to announce that Gia Mia RX is here!




Gia Mia RX 2.0

Gia Mia has been redesigned from scratch for Panther. Includes two variants, each with application skins for Safari, Font Book, and Help Viewer. Also included are 8 desktops (2 of which come in 3 sizes for a total of 12) as well as a cursor set.

Get it at the newly relaunched Nowhere Studios or Download Now.

As an added bonus, MacNN members get an additional desktop not included in the set [available here].

I only wish there were a few more AppSkins (for AddressBook for example). Have you got anything planned for that matter?

Cheers.

BTW, 100th post!

Edit: I don't know if it is a bug, but with the graphite variation, the edges of the menu separators seem to be pixelated. Nothing serious, all in all.

Nice. About time we had a fresh theme.

Edit: Found a "bug", just a missing element. The finder columns view "column resize handle" or whatever it's called isn't themed in both variations.

Humm... I have to say this is not what I expected. I did install it and it's a good theme. Not a fan of the main menu bar. Doesn't do it for me. Also, I noticed the stop/reload button in safari is bigger than the others (just the X and reload symbol)

You did do great work on this theme though.

Thanks NetShadow. My computer had some problems and I ended up having to work from a backup .tpark, so many elements had to be redone. Apparently this one got looked over.

As for the issue of other app skins, I do have quite a few more planned for Gia Mia RX 2.1.

Finally, the stop/reload button,(at least on my screen) is the same size as the other buttons.

So cool!

Nice to see a theme with square buttons!

Brien, how long does it take for the 2.1 version to come out ?

Thanks for doing this theme.

I must admit, when I first saw the mockup, I didn't like it much, but that is a very nice theme, way to go!
