AldousHxlE Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 **By Dax** Since the Unibin of Shapeshifter came out, it is now possible to use PPC and Intel themes on OSX(x86)! Share your themes here, and please post a link to where you found it, if possible. Go! **By AldousHxIE** Oh Hell Yeah!!!! Gotta love those classic pinstripes.

Takuro Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Here's how my desktop looks after I used shapeshifter: http://img157.imageshack.us/img157/1827/jaguarskinneddv9.png I'm aiming for a Jaguar look. The theme I'm using doesn't seem to change the Apple icon in the Finder to the glossy 10.3 one. I'm also trying to remove the spotlight icon, or even disable it completely to increase speed. Any tips or links to better themes for a 10.3 or 10.2 style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AldousHxlE Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Hey Takuro, check out this theme: http://www.macthemesforums.net/viewtopic.php?t=3099 It completely gets rid of the brushed metal theme and replaces it with pinstripes. And yes, the Apple logo will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colonel Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Here's one for thoes of us that want ours to look like Jaguar. It's called Janther and it's the first theme on this list. http://www.resexcellence.com/themes/index_58.shtml Here's my MacBook with ShapeShifter... I liked it so much, I had to upload another. It's supposed to look like Jaguar. The Dashboard and the iLife icons kind of ruin it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suleiman Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 okay folks, a few important observations: 1) The icon sets that ShapeShifter uses are CandyBar icon sets. So do a search on the web for them and once downloaded, you need but open your System Prefs ShapeShifter Panel, select Icon Sets from the Apply tab, and then press the + button to browse to your CandyBar icon set. 2) The best place to find these sets that I could find was www.iconfactory.com, but the site is down. So I used our friend google to find an alternate link into the iconfactory website. Try this: http://www.iconfactory.com/ware.asp 3) This is my desktop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takuro Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I liked it so much, I had to upload another. It's supposed to look like Jaguar. The Dashboard and the iLife icons kind of ruin it though. Is that the Pinstripes OS X 10.0 skin, or another Jaguar theme? If it's something that hasn't been posted yet, could you provide a link to the theme? Thanks!

If it's something that hasn't been posted yet, could you provide a link to the theme? Thanks! That's just the 10.0 skin. I just helped it out a bit by changing the Finder icon and adding the Jaguar wallpaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takuro Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I've found a complete Jaguar clone, down to the last detail: http://www.resexcellence.com/themes/04/01-06_jaguar.sit It's designed for 10.3, but it works perfectly fine with 10.4. If you search the web, disabling spotlight and the dashboard is easy. Here's a Jaguar login panel if anybody wants it: http://www.resexcellence.com/loginpanel/05...JaguarLogin.sit *** Note: only use the bundled images. Don't replace anything else or it'll mess up the login window. And to get the snappiness of a Jaguar system: Disable spotlight Terminal: sudo open -e /etc/hostconfig Change it to SPOTLIGHT=-NO- (To undo this, change it to "yes" obviously..) To erase the current index (you can always reindex later) mdutil -i off / mdutil -E / To enable indexing again... mdutil -i on / Disable Dashboard defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES killall dock To re-enable.. defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO Also if you want the jaguar wallpaper to show at login as default, simply go to "/System/Desktop Pictures" and rename the wallpaper of choice to "Aqua Blue.jpg" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
