[ANN] Mizu (aka. Zana, Water) panther GUIkit

Click to zoom
Update: Now divided into one yellow elements version and one white. This is so you can have all aqua elements blue while having the widgets white.
Well, there it is, only coughhintcough a screenshot
so far but I'm hoping to have a preview release for this out in a week or two. The next few days I'll be at an introduction of my new school with my girlfriend, it's at least 300 miles away so I won't be checking in here for a while.
So stay good, and don't reveal anything
I'll be looking forward to some comments

/Daniel
Edit: Sorry 'bout there being no updates to busy at the moment. No inspiration... so, guess all the ones interested enough to want a bugy release know how to get the secret one by now?

Yeah, that's the way I'm thinking as well... Hoped you'd all find what you were looking for in the picture though. Well 'nough said about that.

Ha ha, I was thinking the same thing � "Hey, why the hell is it loading from the top and middle?!"
Anyway, I'll have to wait until tomorrow to finish downloading it (dialup curse), but the screenie looks awesome!

Well I opened it in a background tab, and stuff loads so quick for me that I wouldn't have noticed it very easily even if it had loaded in the primary window.
I had to come back and was wondering, and I don't think that is such a crime.
I think credit should be given where it is deserved, and it was a good idea.
ha ha ha ha ha! clever! I didn't notice that is was .html and not .jpg and was reading the replies thinking "how does he know it doesn't have safari buttons?" Then it hit me like a flaming arrow... very clever

What did you use to change the color of your dock in that screenshot? TransparentDock? I've never been able to get such nice results with TD's default color options..

This is what you need to change the dock color.
This is a direct link to "Spotlight". it is the theme I am using. If you want to see another screenshot before you download it go to http://www.resexcellence.com/themes/ and scroll about 1/3 of the way down.
very nice theme, cant wait for you to finish it... really the most inivative thing ive seen in a while.

edit: found it myself... http://www.gotow.net/gotowerks/Projects/hack.html

Wow
That's a lot of good comments, thanks a bunch everyone.
The buttons for safari will be completed in the official release, only a few more days now.
Then I'll complete the progressbars for a second preview and face the buttons and tabs for the final. Well... knowing me that'll take a while. But I've used it as is for over a year now... works good.
Also grey menus will be availible in the official preview.
Thanks again! Later guys.

Hehe...just one year, started during last summer

Hey, it's a hobby... I only do it when I feel like it... And a little more each time someone wonders what happened with that awsome theme. Besides my girlfriend thinks it's geeky...
Transparancy in the titlebar is made by simply making the titlebar transparent.

LOL. An old girlfriend of mine (the one that got away) used to get her revenge on my Mac time by going around to display Macs at computer stores and putting the System Folder in the trash.

She was always frustrated that the OS wouldn't allow her to empty the trash. I had to follow her around and set every Mac right.

Well It looks cool...But is the screendump from photoshop or is it real ?? ( shapeshifter )
If it's real, then I have one question! I did not think that graphics around the Window borders were possible ?? ( that's what the "Pro Themers" tell me )..
Plz.. Correct me if im wrong ?..

It is real.
YAY! Been waitin a while for dis one. ThANks and get it finished!!

After using the theme I have a few gripes. I know this is only a beta but there are alot of unfinished bits, rendering the theme unusable imo. The second thing is less of gripe and more curousity. When u open a preference pane with this theme enabled, after it loads u can still see the loading text behind the other text. dont know if there is much u can dobout it though.

I've been using this theme for a year and never noticed anything like that...
