Aqua... Man, I love it!
Is it just me, or is there nothing better than the standard blue aqua theme? I always experiment with other themes, but none of them seem to be as eye-catching as aqua. None of them see as pleasing, you know what I'm saying? I may change a theme for a day or two, but then it's back to aqua.... good old blue.... mmmmmmm. Anyone elses opinions?

Same with me. Aqua is the only theme I've kept for over a week. Go Steve-o!

I like it, I think apple is pretty smart when it comes to human - interface design. (Correct me of any exceptions... they probably are some out there)

Re: Aqua... Man, I love it!
I find Aqua dull and boring when I look at people's custom jobs, but very soon after I apply one, it seems gaudy and obtrusive. I suppose Apple knows best about keeping the interface out of the way and letting you focus on what you're doing.
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

I'm using the graphite Aqua scheme now, but I still agree. It's so graceful and elegant and sophisticated. I love it!
Can you believe some people say Luna is cooler than Aqua? Pift.

Re: Aqua... Man, I love it!
I've tried a few different themes and mods but Aqua is the one I like best. I even like the stock desktop picture - though I think Apple stole it from CBC Sports.
I've tried swimming in raw sewage, as well as taking a shower in it. It burns. It burns. . .
And it smells bad. My car was never right after that.
Patience is a virtue of the weak for it makes them stand still long enough for the strong to crush them with ease.

You don't really need that much customization in OS X when the stuff it includes is so excellent.

Speaking of raw sewage. I think Brushed Metal will be a boon to authors of GUI moding software.
