CUNEYT  When you watch a movie full screen, you still see the menubar.. Is it possible to make this disappear.. The menubar is visible with full screen movie watching only when Liger is installed, but I dont want to uninstall it. I want to keep using it, but I dont want to see the menubar when I am watching a movie full screen. Any solutions to this issue?

ZIEK  LIGER TRYER / BUYER B E W A RE !

I was right with spiderlama, the author of Liger, even to the point of contemplating sending some scratch for he and his girlfriend's dinner....well almost.

I began downloading the requisite pieces of software, ... the first one...Liger...free (with a request)....the second...Application Enhancer (by UnSanity)....free....the third...ClearDock (by UnSanity)...free....get ready for it....the last and most critical component ShapeShifter (also by UnSanity) a 15 day FREE trial and post that ...cough up $20.00.

Thought it best for tryers to know...first!

FACTORYJOE  I've been using this theme since it first came out and love it. 1.6 adds some nice features and cleanup, but the Dock hack is a little odd and uncomfortable. Otherwise, this thing is the closest you can get to Leopard without breaking the NDA!

FACTORYJOE  You do need to have ShapeShifter installed first to use this theme. It won't work without it.

SPIRALYODA  It has been updated again. The new dock is now able to horizontally resize, even though it's a little bit laggy.

Btw : the author should really find a way to quickly inform users of updates, at least on the official site http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/57706188/

Great job anyway :-)

F451  This theme is now up to version 2. You need to watch the developer's link to learn all about the latest.

This has become my favorite theme. Very well done!

STRAUSS  Nice theme.

The menu's need to be more transparent, and the menu bar a little less. Otherwise it's pretty clean.

Good work.

SAM LONG  Can I just say how amazing this theme is!! Well done mate! However I have one minor issue:

It is not compatible with "camoflauge" or however you spell it. this app hides the icons on the desktop (a la leopard) but also turns the menu bar invisible when this theme is enabled which i must say is very wierd as it should normally do nothing to the menu bar. I really love the theme though, if you can sort out any form of dock, you shall be a hero.

Atm im using clear dock and have put the picture of the 10.5 dock onto my normal background. just a little workaround im using at the moment. Dont know if this helps :)

thankyou

ELEGRAPHY  Thanks so much to make this theme. It's very good looking. Although I do experience some bugginess. The silver gray color for Finder and Safari looks tiled when their windows expand vertically. I also think the menu bar was a bit too transparent for Menu's black text to against any dark wallpaper. Other then that, it's a perfect theme :)

S_ENGEL  Doesn't work with Finder and Pathfinder runing at the same taim. The menubars of both are lying upon each other so that I have to quit Finder OR Pathfinder to see only one menu bar. Can you fix this bug? (It does not happen with different themes, only with Liger...)

ELEGRAPHY  1.You need to install ShapeShifter into your System Preferences first, then download and unzip Liger, inside look for Liger.guiKit.

2. Open Finder, put Liger.guiKit into Folder.

3. Open System Preferences (you can find it under ? icon on your desktop menu bar) then open ShapeShifter.

4. Check "ShapeShifter Enabled" on the first page, then click Apply tab.

5. Click Themes, then look for Liger, highlight it, then click Apply Changes. (You can also cutomize icons and desktop)

6. Enjoy!

THENICKAMAN  Duh, I forgot to mention. So Liger is not a combination of Leopard + Tiger. A more appropriate name might be "Leoger" or "Leiger" but that doesn't have the same ring to it...

THENICKAMAN  Excellent theme! My sincere thanks!

Keep in mind though, a Liger is a cross between a (male) Lion and a (female) Tiger.

No, Napoleon Dynamite didn't invent this awesome creature--Its an actual animal, and so is a Tigon! Check it out if you don't believe me:

SWO  I just assumed that he used Leopard + Tiger = Liger (which is actually a real animal, though I am not entirely sure that they exist in the wild, btw). Very clever.

AANHORN  Thanks for being among the first to attempt this, there are a lot of us out there looking for a quality Leopard theme.

A few tweaks that should be made -

Menubar transparency isn't quite there yet, from what I can tell Leopard's menubar is a smidge more transparent.

Menu corners are slightly rounded in Leopard, also menus are again, a smidge more transparent.

Some kind of Leopard dock skin would also be appreciated.

Anyway, keep up the good work!
