This is an awesome interpretation of Panther. Very well done to everyone. :)

And my 5 cents as to why there are so many Mac based themes... simple... "Easy on the eyes"... I'm a graphic designer, and I spent a lot of time at my PC, don't get me wrong, there are some wonderful themes out there, but when you're working with "color" & "layout" all day, you need something a little "lighter"... if I was predominantly using my machine for games, chat, etc, I'd definately go for something a little darker and more ornate.

nice but how about a black version of this. thank you

i find a bug:

open a window with tabs.. the first and the last one have a round corner on the bottom, then, when you chose that one, you will see the tab become square.

I like those Mac styles, but the most bad thing is that usually the button's texts get truncated because the font is too big :(

Please read the Readme before posting bug reports.

Both of the issues you mention are covered.

Thank you all for the very warm welcome. I am happy that you guys welcome the new TD4.0.

When you say "why so many Mac themes??, they all look alike" I'll try to answer why this one is special.

Over at the Mac emulation site www.aqua-soft.org, for the last 4 months a member base of 5000+ has been anticipating this release. Threads on the TD Panther series combined have accumulated between 20k and 30k of page views, considering aquasoft is such a small community (only 5000 members) that is a very large amount.

Although this theme was only released 15 hours ago it's release thread is into its 7th page.

Adding to this, is that this theme was a joint release together with aquafying legend Iceman, whose latest theme before this one was Jaguar 2.01 emulating Mac 10.2, until now accepted to be the only proper OsX port.

Also acclaimed neowin artists such as b0se, and Kol are part of the group of 9 talented artists that helped to make this the definitive XP port of Apple Os X 10.3.

Yeah, most people are missing the fact that this is a perfect (Well, as much as Windows allows) recreation of the MacOSX 10.3 theme. Great job!

[ahfunaki]

Looks nice...

Excellent work, TD. I've been using your TDK_Panther VS off and on since it came out, and this one is even better. Terrific work, thanks for the time you've spent on it.

BTW, I follow your work over at Aqua-soft, so like the others, I'm eagerly awaiting Plastic Pro 2 :)

[TrevGlas]

Another thing.... why buy a PC and make it look like a Mac? If they are so great, BUY A MAC!!!

[Bant Veteran]

holy crap, you are the first to ever say that.... thank you for your wisdom, im sure everybody would much rather go out and shell out hella cash for a new computer instead of downloading a couple files on the internet.....

take one(1) hammer and apply to face, use force if necessary.

at least come up with an original flame if you are going to troll around....

[technics]

cool, nice theme looks slicK!

[toadeater]

The next person to make an OSX theme is a rotten egg.

@TrevGlass:

All of us have Macs, don't you worry.

Thank you Bant, for sticking up for us.

All the n00bs posting do not realise that we were actually the first to start skinning Aqua back in '99-'00.

Thanks man,

Disappointing, I'm afraid. I'm a great fan of the OSX Emulation scene, and I used to do a bit of app work at AquaXP - I'm not bashing what you've done, but it didn't deserve the build-up. The way I see it, it's been one big huge anti-climax. Frankly I'd rather use some of KoL's themes than this.

Nothing special, just another Panther theme with bad fonts. (No, they're not 100% accurate - don't give me that).

Congrats on all the hard work and the release and everything, but it's not what you guys made it out to be.

Nice enough theme, though.

That may be the case but I still find KoL's panther to be technically the best Panther theme out there.

I Agree..this seems a little ...confused to me.

[adamp2p]

Thanks for sharing TD. It seems all too often you get replies from people who clearly have nothing better to do then come up with creative negative responses.

I like it.

Adamp2p:

Thanks for your kind words, I appreciate it when people actually try a theme, before commenting.

@msbmsn:

If you don't believe that the fonts are 100% accurate, I can only say that you probably do not know how to install the supplied fonts, or have not been a designer very long.

@Dazzla:

If you believe that KoL's Panther is more technically a correct Panther, I can only tell you that KoL himself said, he is not out to make an accurate Panther theme.

A comparison for the real Graphic artists out there:
