#####NOTES#####
This theme is based on OSX Tiger Theme and Kougyoku. The icon theme is based on Mac4Lin.
This theme requires that you have the mac menubar applet (by AqD) or the new global menu.
Choose the one by AqD if you want the application title name next to the menu (the bolded text).

Great theme m8! Pretty well done! ur id at devinatart is priceless! :D rated gud!
IMO, one of the nicest osx theme. one stupid question, how you put that google searchbox in epiphany?
Thanks. :) Follow the instructions http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/12/10/create-a-search-bar-for-epiphany/ for the search bar
early version, i kno, but it needs some work, but very nice so far! PS I would recommend not using firefox 2 for preview purposes ;) Switch to version 3 (under the "developers" tab) It used the proper GTK buttons and such among other things.
That's Epiphany ;). Thanks for the suggestions!
Oh, ok didn't know anyone actually used it :p ... my recommendation still applies though ;)
How did you removed the File..etc. menubar? Good work anyway
I used the mac menu applet (now renamed to Global Menu applet, but same functions). https://wiki.ubuntu.com/global_menu
