Very nice. I had made a half hearted attempt at this myself and then gave up. Cant remeber exactly what software I was using but it was a dated tutorial I had followed. I would appreciate a better tutorial if you wouldnt mind - once the enter keys workin of course biggrin.gif

Yeah, it does look great.

I've got an XP computer and i've rigged it up so it looks EXACTLY like Vista in Basic mode, with nothing but an msstyles theme, all the genuine Vista icons, and my trusty little friend Resource Hacker.

So far, i've got my XP computer to look like Vista and Ubuntu. I'm getting a bit tiered of the Vistaness, so i too can't wait for a tutorial on a Mac transformation.

I don't get why you would want to change Windows into Mac. Mac Sucks, plus that is a lot of work, when you could just buy a Mac.

I've wondered that myself~

It does look pretty cool. I personally don't like Mac, but I assume you're doing this because you're more used to it? (I guessed this since your project is beta in Mac and Alpha in Windows)
