Description
An update of my venerable Jaguar skin - OSXP NG. This adds support for most WB5 features - i.e. transparency and new progress barThere are four flavors to this skin: One with windows-style control placement and mouse-over animations, another using a stricter OSX approach. Plus, if you don't use WB5 both with WinAmp controls and a time display. To use the WinAmp controls with WA3 you will need WA2 Plugin Manager (my, that shows its age - I've no idea about WA5).
Includes 4.0 shellstyles and 4.2 toolbar icons and animations.
You also get colorization support (so you don't just have to use aqua blue) and WindowBlinds 3.5 support in the form of skinned sliders for XP.
If you want a graphite version, use the standard WindowBlinds 'greyscale' option in the colorizatio/gamma popup.

I have downloaded the OSXP NG and can someone tell me how and what I use to install this on my XP machine. I have window shades installed but it does not see OSXP NG at all.

Very nice judge I still prefer Tiger and panther though the Jaguar has too much pinstripe for me. And the buttons having drop shadows! ugh. I still like your work though very nice. I have both a PC and a mac and I prefer the mac all the way. It is much more stable. It also is so much nicer. PCs in general are normally stuck being ugly but tiger can run on Intel I'm pretty sure. Judge I'm sorry if this will lower your ratings on downloads for this or whatever but all these people seem to think that this skin is better than Steve GRenier's Tiger skin. Now no insult but I prefer the nice gradient to the over-powered pinstripes of Jaguar. If you want to check out Grenier's Tiger skin it's at [link] Once again no insult to Judge and no harm meant. It just seems that if people like the mac look they might want to check the many other ports. Once again very nice.

No problem. I'm not going to be making any other 'big-cat' skin than this one - but I wanted to keep this up to date with the abilities of WB5.

Can You make A Panther Upgrade for this Great Skin?
I love it but I love Panther, too.
All in all this is the best looking Mac-Similar Style I ever found.
Really Great Work.

Hey dudes, don't waste your time...
I use both mac and pc, like more the mac, but the pc isn't so ugly; at my mac I've no wallpaper 'cause it bothers me when working (just only a gray unlimited wall, eh, eh), at my pc I put whatever I want as a wall...
Macs handles much better colors, but pcs opens more apps at once...
etc.
About linux, it's great, but I don't use it 'cause the lack of intensive color manipulation apps...

like a mac... but not!
being a maco myself, i think you guys need to throw your "PCs" out the window and buy a mac. they are great. thats my 2 cents. (great working on the skin, tho)

I dont have to pretend. I DO run the best operating system in existance.
btw, it ISNT mac osx. it's called linux
*gets lynched by fanboys*
looks nice, but on a serious note, I HEAVILY suggest that you be careful, or apple will sue you, they already sued a site for having mac styles for a non-apple system.. (it was the metal looking theme iirc)
I prefer more of a 2d, yet detailed look to my apps.
like the k-ath-leen 3 theme for icewm..
however.. kudos on the work.

Other than that, fantastic job

I've got an eMac with Jaguar, and that's probably the most hilariously great thing I've seen for a while. LOVE IT! BWAHA!
I just feel sorry for those poor, poor Windows people, but it was very considerate of you to at least give them the option to *think* they've got a Mac. How sweet!

I'm a mac user, Powerbook & iMac running Jaguar. I think this is a nice osx skin for winblows. One point though, the menu bar should be at the top.

Really really good job!
Please, bare with teh Mac's users, they have the tendency to be quite arch, but it is just because they know what they are talking about.
But here, you are just talking design!
Great job!
Most of the details don't match Jaguar, but who will complain???!!!!
Definitely a must.
Now, as a mac & window user, I must agree that you can't macth a mac with a pc.
End of the story.
As a network administrator with a big network of pc, I love goign back to my mac at home.
You just can't compare.
but for your design, you damn rock!
Cheers

Excellent theme! :woot:
One question though: why do you have the IE icon as the icon for Mozilla Firebird in your start panel?

Hey Mac-heads, cool down. This is recognition of the beauty of the OSX GUI, but not everyone has enough spare cash to dump their PC and buy a Mac. Some other folks have no choice over the computer they have to use but would still like it to look and feel as much like a Mac as possible.
Take it as a compliment

It is a pretty decent OS X theme for Windows, but making Windows look like OS X is lame. I know, because I used to do it myself. Then I got a Mac. By the way, this is designed to look like Jaguar, not Panther, which is the most recent version of OS X and has an updated look. Not that that's bad, I'm just saying.
You can copy the look of a Mac pretty well on Windows, but you can't duplicate the feel.

I used to use a 15" LCD iMac. You can't duplicate the feel of Windows on a Mac. I missed the flexability of Windows while using OS X. I didn't miss windows crashing. XP is pretty stable though. Nice Work! I'll be downloading this one. I miss my iMac.

You can dress up a cheap prostitute like a princess, but she'll still give you herpes.
