It's ****ing ugly, and square. Also, I find that since it looks like something wireless, i am less inclined to click on the button.

They are. Ive never really noticed the inconsistency.

Did you take a look at any of the many links that I posted? Most of those posts are by professional Mac software developers who have noticed marked inconsistencies in the UI. There are direct quotes from the Apple HCI guidelines, followed by clear, objective examples of how parts of the OS and the iApps disregard several of them. The guidelines may have been broken for "good reason" but that doesn't change the fact that they have been broken. Of course, in the end, you can choose to believe what you want, but not everyone is deluded.

It's a well known fact that Apple have broke their own interface guidelines. They seem to do it a lot (as Kunal has pointed out with quite a few reference links).

I quite like the inconsistency in the UI (though they should try and be inconsistent within their own guidelines ) when trying themes or applications which made the entire O/S follow a single colour scheme, things got boring quite quickly. May mixes like Brushed Metal and Aqua live long

This part of my reply was removed by myself as it blatantly broke about a dozen rules of the forum. I don't feel the need to reply in a childish manner, as all that seems to do is make certain members feel more powerful.

I thought you added some tweak a while back that made everything consistent. Or was that Bert? :ermm:

yar, was called Uno. It looked nice, but I got bored of it after a while as well.

I feel the need to post in this thread b/c I read about it on Kunal's blog *shameless plug*

Really nifty though, I don't see the big deal either, granted I'll never use
it as I don't use Macs (hence my avatar)

Gee. Great. Thanks for sharing.

An installer ? For something that literally requires the drag & drop replacement of 4 files sitting in a folder.

Oh dear

I'm guessing some people find that too hard to do.
That, or Mac Specialist just felt the need to join the party.
