Liger - Leopard theme for Tiger.

Version 1.6 FINAL (released 29/07/07).

This version includes the Xcode projects for both LigerDock and LigerMenubar. Please finish developing these projects, as I don't have time to currently (final semester of uni). And I would love to hear about it too -- the next time I see Leopard, I will have a new iMac with the real Leopard on it. Thanks to everyone who supported this, and thanks for all the comments. Cheers!

See http://spiderlama.wordpress.com/2007/08/20/the-liger-door-closes/ for more info.


Made to mimic Leopard.

Check out installation video Pfj_45aq9nM at youtube.

If you appreciate the work I have done on this, please support it by making a donation. This donation will go towards taking my girlfriend out to dinner, to compensate all the time I've spent working on Liger instead of being with her :P

Installation method:
1. Use ClearDock to hide the Dock background and set indicator colour white.
2. Open "Liger.guiKit".
3. Apply "Liger" them, icon set, and desktop picture.
4. Open "Liger.pkg" and follow instructions.

NOTE: If updating from previous version, please open "Uninstall.app" first.

Changes:
- LigerDock
  - Uses Quarts for fast graphics
  - can auto-hide
- LigerMenubar image improved
- Added variants
  - Opaque Menubar
  - Metal
  - Metal + Opaque Menubar
  - Added brown folder icon set
- Added some app icons
  - Xcode
  - Interface Builder
  - Terminal
  - System Preferences

Features:
- FLAWLESS TRANSPARENCY for ANY menu extras and any app!
- Nice looking menu-extras :)
- App skins for Safari and Mail! (More to come)
- Grass wallpaper!
- Icons!
- Dock (check the preview screenshot)

Known issues (working list):
- Safari v3 Beta doesn't like themes :S
- LigerDock
  - Animation jumpy
  - Only supports bottom position
- LigerMenubar
  - Transparency can't be changed
- Menubar and Dock both don't like fullscreen apps (eg. DVD Player) [you can auto-hide the Dock to fix part of the problem]

Thanks:
- Nordoc for the name (my imagination alluded me on this one)
- Zach for transparency ideas
- Lentife for killer video guides
- Bladziak for a better menu-bar image
- Everyone for their support (and donations)!

I tried uninstalling this because I wanted a different theme for a while, but I just can't get rid of the stubborn menubar. I tried uninstalling Liger and deleting all of the Liger files on my computer, but it's still sitting on top of any other menubar I try to put up in Shapeshifter. When I create a new user the menubar is fine and back to default, but I can't seem to get rid of it on mine. Any suggestions?
