Post your X.2 Desktop Pics!

[Ricky]

You stole my HD name!

EDIT: This is about as close as I'm going to get to Jaguar, until Agust 24th @ 10:00 AM...

Click for a full-size image.

(my dock is usually hidden, but shown for this snapshot.)

I saw your shot in MacNN forums and asked what that icon next to the Help menu is? I'm curious as is someone else on MacNN.

I wish I had 10.2 to take some shots! Oh well.

But back to your question, no Jaguar does NOT have native "theme" support. I seriously doubt Mac OS X will have ANY sanctioned mean of themes any time soon. If you think otherwise, then you really don't understand why there are things like the human interface guidelines.

Intergace Guidelines, Shminterface Guidelines! I want a pretty OS!

I use Duality and it has given me no problems yet. If a Theme doesn't work, it won't let you use it. Simple as that. And I ALWAYS test it immediately after changing it. Just launch an app. If it doesn't run, the Theme failed and will kill the OS. Just switch back and everything's fine.

Ruby iMac, Build 6C106.
Works fine, although the speed bump is not as much as it was from 10.0 --> 10.1.
How do i get greyed-out icons for hidden apps btw...? Or do i have to recompile half the OS then?

 

[xaqintosh]

with tinkertool or transparentdock, I'm not sure which.

NielZ: How does Jaguar run on your Mac? I've also got a 450MHz G3 (I have 576 MB RAM, though). Just a question.

It appears that feature was only implemented into a later build...

Ah, my apologies. I haven't been following that MacNN thread. The icon is the menu to bring up the Character Palette.

*sigh* You just don't get it, do you? Without rules like the interface guidelines, we would be stuck with a hideously haphazard operating system where different apps have widely different interfaces and interface behaviors -- much like Linux.

Nope, it's been working for quite a long time... at least since the 6C8x builds.

Oh, you mean that new one in OS X.2? Cool.

And since when it Linux BAD? And who says that adding a simple feature that EVERYONE wants (Including YOU) will ruin the Mac OS and bring it to the same level as XP and Linux? It's just THEMES! People are gonna do it ANYWAY! Why not make it easier and SAFER?

Oh well, no skin off my neck. I'll be theming the OS whether Apple likes it or not.

 

[xaqintosh]

the themes we have right now don't conflict with the interface guidelines. they just change some colors and some icons and some widgets etc. but it is still consistent. all windows still look the same, just different when compared to another computer.

It runs fine. Still not as fast as OS 9, but i see a speed bump. Lets say the switch from 10.0 to 10.1 was +50% speed, now lets say its... ± 20%.
Thinks run more 'slicky' in general, windows & menus open faster, programs boot faster etc

could somebody post a link to the boot screen for 10.2? the one with the glowing neon things.
