So yeah, I'm on a Mac Mini 1.42GHz w/ 512MB RAM on an Erase & Install of Tiger..

When I first log in from changing my theme, but after a second (maybe two) my menu extras become unskinned, as seen in the image below.

I have tried reinstalling APE & ShapeShifter.

Anyone who is having this problem is welcome to report it / so are any updates/fixes on the issue.

Then my guess is you're not using a theme that has been updated for tiger.? Shapeshifter can't magically fill in holes for you?:whistle:e:

For the last time, It's the Tiger updated theme, and wither it's updated or not has nothing to do with the menu extras being skinned or not. Thanks,

Now if we can move on, and stop blaming not the user.

It is a known anomaly for some users theming Tiger. It is not known to be a confirmed shapeshifter or themepark issue as many users do not have any problems. It affects multiple models of Macs as well as multiple types of Tiger installs. The devs are aware and are trying to track it down. Sometimes a log-out cures it some times a restart. Stay tuned....

Thanks for the update, if there's anything I can do to help, say the word..

I am also noticing, when moving larger windows around, it seems a lot slower.

EDIT: (esp for james)

Removing Snapz Pro X (which starts up each time I login) fixed the menu extras issue.

Moving large windows around such as Safari and iTunes is still a lot slower than no theme though. However, if I move them towards the bottom of the screen (where it's overlap, only the top is just exposed over the dock) it's fine. Weird.. Might stick with the Tiger UI until things are worked out.

It helps to say these things :rolleyes:

Please read your first and second posts and tell me how anyone was supposed to know.

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
