Product Description:
ShapeShifter is a revolutionary new product that lets you change the overall appearance of your Mac using 'themes'. We're not talking about just desktop backgrounds and icons here, we're talking about everything - the look of windows, menus, apps, buttons, absolutely everything. You don't wear the same clothes everyday, your house doesn't look exactly like your neighbor's - why should the computing interface you use everyday be any different. You personalize your physical workspace to suit your tastes and whims, so why not your Mac?
With ShapeShifter, you can:
With ShapeShifter, you can:
- Change the overall appearance of your operating system safely, quickly, and reliably;
- Change the appearance of individual apps to match your theme and your mood;
- Experience things that haven't been possible with Mac themes before;
- Quickly preview themes without actually applying them;
- Use Panther themes in Tiger effortlessly;
- Install different themes for different users;
- Add and remove themes effortlessly.
What's new in this version:
- Added a spiffolicious new module "guiTweak" that provides the ability to modify guiKit files using Core Image filters. guiTweak makes it simple to tweak a theme that you like into a theme that you love. It also lets you move variants between guiKit files, rename variants, remove variants, or change the preview image or description for variants. Tiger only.
- It's now possible to change the pressed state text color of push buttons independently from the other text colors.
- Some problematic applications, like Proteus, are again themed properly.
- ShapeShifter no longer logs error messages to the Console on Panther while using Finder list view windows.
- ShapeShifter no longer logs error messages to the Console when theme images contain ColorSync profiles.
- Menubar status items now work properly on systems that are set to always use the metal appearance for Cocoa windows.
- Resolved an issue that could prevent menu mouse-over highlights from displaying in certain themes.

Not safe as Shapeshifter but, if you got sick of Leopard's look, free alternative - Version: 2.5, 3/20/2009 01:56PM PST

It does what shapeshifter does in file overwriting (with backup of course) way.
IMHO Unsanity should have released a Leopard edition without APE exactly. Well, some people have done it.
Shapeshifter's method is still the safest and way more reliable. If you keep running Tiger, there is no reason to give up.
It seems we lost shapeshifter thanks to the anti ape trolls and jealous developers. Hopefully I will be proved wrong but it seems so...

Here are 4 apps I've found which have problems booting so you should add them to your Shapeshifter Exclude List:
Bittorrent
Minefield (Firefox 3.x beta)
Skitch
Toast Titanium 9

Think I'm going to pay again for what ended up being a reason to do a complete reinstall ? H E double hockey sticks no ! Lousy crashmaster program that isn't supported ! Dump that junk !
