I've been working on an icon for this little app if you would like to take a look. I'll pm it to you and you may use it if you wish.

I like this icon:


I found it on CocoaGrove

Well, the window resources are there, but yea, it would probably be a good idea to add a toolbar to Showcase, and also add a text inputs sections.

ok now i know this would be asking too much but .. i am sure there are available applescripts out there, i can supply them to you if you could integrate them .. to do the following:

1. replace extras2.extras sart.bin (copy original to safe area)
2. restore originals from safe areas (check box for each file that are in the safe area)
3. apply the command that enables the use of the resources in extras
4. logout button (or restart finder or UI if possible?)

number 2 is probably the trickiest one to implement, there are probably easier ways to do it anyway. the rest are basically just automator scripts that are launched when you click on the button so they shouldnt be too hard? right?

I know its asking too much, but i am sure they would be super useful to everyone

either way, this is just amazing work on its own .. and thank you for your effort

It would appear that with the suggestions you two have made, this would turn out to be some kind of theming app.

Yea it is great to use but just making a few suggestions to make it even better.

Sweet..This is pretty practical.

true

Additionally, I don't have the skills to do it, so it is not happening.

I've uploaded a new version with the icon that Mac Intosh linked to and a toolbar.

Does anyone even mod them?

It is rare that people mod them, but they are some themes that change the shape of the text entry fields (GAIA for instance)

@Rion: Did you get permission from iTweek from CocoaGrove.com to use the icon? I just linked to it but I am not sure you can put it in your app until you ask.

The website says "Please contact me if you plan to use them for any commercial purpose".

Yea, I agree we need more sliders and horizontal and small scrollbars. Maybe an improvement to the list headers as well. Be able to press them etc.

While you're at it the small streetlight buttons would be nice, and some actually filled in progress bars. Other than that it's great!

Two different sets of widgets ON THE SAME WINDOW would be hard.
