I've always hated Stardock apps except for the icon changing app. I preferred to hack my uxtheme.dll when I was still using Windows. On Leopard, there are no apps like those.

I'll get back to you on this once I find my wallet and go to work.

I have an Object Desktop subsciption, so I already use all of that stuff.

Like Josh, I used to just hack my uxtheme.dll and go on dA in search of themes.



Actually, there's candybar. Assuming you're too stupid to know how to replace icons yourself, that is.

I've been using Candybar since v3 was released. It makes things so much easier. Especially when you are replacing every single movie in your library with Custom DVD Cases that are saved as PNG only.

VistaGlazz - let's you patch your uxtheme.dll and other files, then lets you revert back to the originals if you wish.

I just use LiteStep and custom themes made for that.

I had WindowBlinds for a while, but now I just stick to my fun little default theme.

Candy maniacs.

bb4win > all.

I used WindowBlinds as a trial, but right now I'm hooked on Alienware. 4 very nice themes.

Nah don't use any

Never was a fan of either. Believe me, I've tried both. While they offer a lot of new features, they lack some functionality that is really the only good thing of the Windows shell. I haven't used either in well over a year now but when I did try them, they were damn near impossible to fully uninstall and the only way I could go back to the old Windows Shell completely was to restore Windows.

I can't stand LiteStep. It really does more harm than good for me.

I used to use WindowBlinds because of its ability to use transparency and shadows in its themes, but none of those themes were any good except for one or two Vista clones. =P

So I stick to just patching my uxtheme.
