Hi there.

 

I found this app (: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/17263 -_- that will let you convert the guiKit files used by almost every Mac theme nowadays into ThemeChange .dlta files.

 

Unfortunately, we can't use guiKits directly because ShapeShifter won't work with Rosetta. If you follow the instructions here: http://www.db79.com/2005/03/27/how-to-guikit-to-dlta/ , then you can get a working .dlta file that you can use to switch themes.

it's a bit complicated

not the proccess to do, but the compatibility.

 

i tried here lots of themes

some of then works, but (finder and extras just can't be apply in every theme)

 

some themes can't convert very well (we need to see the damn "meow at the end of convert" and the only skin what i have 100% of success converted the theme "istyle", but it's show some glitches in finder icons.

 

other bug in x86 is about the menus, dark and black themes can't be viewed correctly, like "black menu background with black fonts).

Having problems with this myself. Was really looking forward to get this working. All I want is the standard Tiger-theme without the brushed metal.

 

try iridium or la mer theme (installers)

find it on macthemes.net forums

 

but like themechanger (finder and extras will be not applyed)

ThemeChanger is buggy and (seemingly) stalled; we're lucky it still works to a point. It doesn't change text color on PPC Macs, so darkthemes are out of the question.

 

Hm.. I'll take the brushed metal Finder over the spatial, toolbarless Aqua Finder any day. (You can switch to that by clicking the white mint-shaped button on the top-right corner.)
