alpha 2 isn't exactly what i wanted it to be yet (you can see the minor list of changes in the new screenshot) but i've put a picture up because i want feedback on the brushed-metal apps (ichat). do you guys like that shade of grey or is it off (i still would like a solid color, just not sure if it needs to be lighter/darker/whatever)? suggestions welcomed, i'm trying to work on it still on and off but there prolly won't be a lot of progress until next week. also, the widgets shown in ichat are just the 10.2.2 standard widgets, still don't have to 10.2.3 to see what the new ones look like once themed (they're no themed yet anyway, i could do a different style of widgets for metal apps if people have any good suggestions).

alpha 2 screenshot (need feedback, other than apple menu and toolbar widget... those are already planned)
