View Full Version : Discuss my OSX colours here

It's a hot topic, apparently, 0.1% of the time I take a screenshot it's completely ignored in favour of the stupidest question imaginable. "How do you use that colour scheme?" - it's quite easy, actually. I set my colours, and I set them up.

OSX grey is flat and boring, and so I like to change it up every now and again. Here are some of the colour styles I have used before. Feel free to direct all comments about them here.

Dead Pixel Grey aka 'aqua blue'

Of course I had to type this after I took the damn screens. The bright nasty horrible aqua blue one, I used for all of 5 seconds before remembering it was awful, and so I've never used it since. So if you guys wanna trash that one, I agree ... 60%.

I used the first one pictured for the last ten months or so, and just today I decided not to switch to the blue one.

Could I ask a real small favour of everyone who views this thread? Stop asking me about this. Please. It's a colour scheme. I was going to say "the colours I use can't be that important to you" but I guess they are, with all the questions I get about it.

The only way you can make a good thread is to emulate me, is it?

Thanks for the compliment :)

Or dusty grey.

Or gunmetal grey.

Or "the cover that holds my MP3 player" grey. That's kind of a darker grey.

I was thinking about posting once for every entry, but figured that might be overkill.

Off-white is reserved for inactive windows now.

It looks like the gun from a game that is $10 at EBGames.
