The Sosumi theme has been updated and it makes windows and buttons appear to have a bit more "depth". Its subtle but "just the right kind" of subtle. Very nice. Feels alot more professional now.
Heres the link. The creator has also released an iTunes Sosumi theme which is cool also. i have installed both with ZERO interference.

Someone on a previous thread about Sosumi had mentioned that they felt that the GUI ran a bit faster. After finishing my work for the day, I started to play around a bit. Of course this is all speculation, and isn't based solely on facts.

With that said, it would make sense that Sosumi would move faster. There are no rounded edges to calculate masks for, there's also no drawing the x - and + in the three top left boxes on rollover.

However, as I said before this isn't based on fact. I know all these graphics are pre-rendered, and cached, but it still needs to be applied to each new window drawn. Maybe Sosumi's images are just "lighter" from the get-go.

Just food for thought.
