SmoothStripes5.1.2

This theme is essential to any theme collection, no doubt about it. SmoothStripes combines the cleanness and purity of Aqua with the professional quality and aesthetics of Max Rudberg, resulting in a beautiful addition to anyone's collection that should not be missed. Unlike Max's other themes, SmoothStripes lack any real extras, as it was designed to match Apple's own desktops and icons. However, it comes with several variations, including versions with sunken widgets, blue widgets, glossy widgets, etc. that each have their own characters, and are each a pleasure to use. SmoothStripes is the next evolution of Aqua, fixing many of the glitches, mistakes, and shortcomings of the current offering from Apple, while improving other satisfactory elements past good, into excellent. (Can anyone say widgets?) To complete the pure white look of your new interface, try using the Snow.E 2 icons from Rad-E8 (http://www.rad-e8.com/).

Great theme! When's there going to be a Universal Binary version?

I too think this theme needs to have the other varients and sunken buttons put back in. Then I will want to use it again.

Awesome theme, thanks a lot for this!

First you removed the sunken buttons, which was the main thing people went to download your themes for, and now you're removing squared edges, when you upgrade you've gotta ADD things, not remove them... what will be gone at a next upgrade? I've modded an old version of your theme so i could still have the sunken buttons, but it'd be better if you just brought those back i believe.

Does this really need to be a package instead of a .guikit doc? Semms odd.

Wow I like it. It's a nice continuation of the original "Simple Aqua" theme.

This is my all-time favourite Mac theme - this is how Aqua really should be. I'm really grateful this theme is available and it's free as well, what more do you want.

Whiney people... some of you have no perspective as to how long it takes to iron out the details that Max has worked on, and it's free for pete's sake. As always Max, keep up the excellent work! (So happy now that sunken buttons are back :-)

One of the best themes by one of the best themers. Keep up the great work!

this is also compatible with themechanger, which is FREE

Huh?, John, I don't see you creating any ORIGINAL themes! Max does a great job of creating some original and some derivative, yet refined themes. Smoothstripes isn't one of his best, but it's clean and polished.
