Metallifizer will enable or disable brushed metal appearance on selected Cocoa applications under Mac OS X 10.2 (this includes Safari, Address Book, iChat, Calculator and others, but not iTunes and QuickTime Player, as latter are Carbon applications). Features:

• Adds brushed metal appearance to Cocoa applications.
• Removes brushed metal appearance from Cocoa applications.
• Implemented as an Application Enhancer 1.2 module.

Version 1.3a1:

• Preliminary support for stripping out brushed metal out of Panther's Finder.
• I have only tested this on Panther, so I have no idea if it works on Jaguar; if you use Jaguar, you best still be using 1.2 as this version offers no advantages suitable for 10.2.
• I suggest adding Finder.app into the settings panel manually. it's in /System/Library/CoreServices/ directory.
• Other more...

Requirements

Mac OS X 10.2 or later, Appearance Enhancer 1.0 or later
