Can anyone show some pics of what these mods have achieved?

I know you've written what they do, but some of it means absolutely nothing to me, pictures would speak volumes!

Cheers!

Heres what it looks like without that useless tab bar

Is it possible to change Messenger appearance from brushed metal to aqua, or at least the new unified titlebar look? Metal seems so heavy on it, I don't think it was a good choice.

I thought it was a little heavy at first too - but its really grown on me. I love the new look now. It fits in with safari and finder.

The Only thing that bugs me is that the windows are not draggable all over like metal windows should be. I keep grabbing the little area in the convo windows next to the emoticons and font set, and realising that I cant drag there :pinch:

I always knew that the whole "drag the window from anywhere" concept would be trouble. Developers never stick to the rules, and it just ends up confusing newbies. They should have kept it just the titlebars for consistency.

I suggest you look into Chromium, its a new theme that was just released and I absolutely love it. It comes with its own installer/restorer so you dont need shapeshifter or and other apps.

Basically Chromium attempts to apply the unified titlebar/plastic look systemwide, and provide consistency between apps. Top corners of windows are rounded, the bottoms are squared. The buttons are sunken and look much nicer. Safari/quicktime fit in with finder and all the other apps. I really love this theme :D

Don't forget Smoothtunes to skin itunes.

Get rid of the MSN logo in your contactlist - UPDATE

Browse to Microsoft Messenger.app/Contents/Resources

To get rid of the MSN logo in the contactlist replace your current .png file with the contents of Contactlist.zip

Should work now.

Contactlist.zip

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
