Changing The Theme Of OSX
Recently I discovered an application that changes the theme of OSX. There was a theme changer for Tiger called Shape Shifter, however that only works for Tiger and costs $20. The application I found is called Magnifique and it is specialized to work on OSX and best of all, it's free. Magnifique has a wide range of themes, from making every window black to changing the the color of the apple logo (in the top right) to red. Not only is it free and has a light interface but it is easy to use. 3 clicks and the theme of OSX has been changed. Here is a guided tour on how to install themes:
1. Install and open Magnifique
2. Choose a theme from the left hand panel and click install theme
3. Select the theme again in My Themes and click Apply Theme
4. Finally, click Relaunch Finder in the the bar directly above
And there you go! Now watch as your theme of OSX changes right before your eyes.
Magnifique comes with many other features such as creating a custom theme, mixing themes, and Renaming themes. There is also a forum page where you can suggest a custom theme to be made. All the links are below.
I also made a video about this, so please watch it if you are having problems with the application or want to learn about the other cool features.
