Hey just wondering if anyone knows any rad mac mods/themes/skins. I have already applied the itunes Silent Night code and I am on chrome so I have a badass murdered out theme on there but thats it so far.

So does anyone know how to change any of the visual aspects on a mac and how to apply color changes and such? I am looking for toolbar color changes and how to change simple things like application symbols and such.

Thanks, +K to those who help, and yes I searchbarred and googled many different things

Also here is the link for the murder out itunes tutorial if anyone missed it, https://newschoolers.com/ns/forums/readthread/thread_id/585212/

I have been getting a subtle feeling that you don't like hipsters...Is this assumption correct?

thanks to everyone above who actually helped and didn't just fight over mac vs. pc battle

I am done and here is the final product after using candybar, mighty mouse, geektool, iStat and applying some theme stuff.

If anyone wants any of the links or scripts for any of this stuff just let me know via PM. I've got it down to the point that it tells me just about everything i need to know on my desktop. even stuff like internal temp, and battery health and # of cycles.

again thanks and +K to those who helped
