Make Gnome look like OSX

Just Stumbled Upon this; figured I might share since loads of people are always asking how to make their desktops more OSXish.

Haven't tried it out myself, but now I have something to keep me busy on the weekend 🙂

But then you'd actually have to buy a Mac. 😉 😛

I think it is a cool article. I wouldn't want my linux box to look like a mac though. I like it looking like a linux box.
 
The Avant Window Navigator is a good find, I've been using the gDesklet launcher which was OK, but this one is much better because it serves as a launcher as a task bar.
 
Sounds good.

I've always abhored OS X's dock. It's pretty and the notifications that it provides are nice, but it just makes the bottom (or left or right) inch or so of my screen unusuable. When using some types of applications it just ends up getting in the way irregardless of how you end up arranging it.

Although I expect by now most application designers for OS X have gotten used to having nothing usefull at the bottom of their windows that would be obscured by the dock.

But if I could get notification animations and such and use that thing as a replacement or addition for gnome-panel then that would be interesting.
 
Thats what I love about Linux, you can pretty much make it look like whatever you want it to..... and for FREE!!!

Has anyone figured out how to change Ubuntu's boot screen? I was looking around and couldn't find any good how-to's.
 
And here I was thinking that you were being sarcastic because default gnome stuff is pretty fugly.
