I went across a program that unifies all programs to be in Aqua interface, but I don't like Aqua. Does anyone know a program that unifies all programs to be in Brushed Metal instead?

I don't think so. Do you have Shapeshifter? That would be your best bet as there are few different themes.

I believe what you are looking for is called Uno
http://gui.interacto.net/

It is a really cool app to skin all of your apps to be that brushed metal everyone loves.

Isn't that the one to unify it in Aqua? Or is it able to use Brushed Metal too?

It appears to be able to do either Aqua or a custom version of the new "Unified" look that certain applications have been adopting (think iTunes), while at the same time standardizing color themes across applications. But no brushed metal.

Yeah I downloaded it. Unfortunately, as you said.. there's no brushed metal. I just used the "Uno Shade" theme.. it's sort of similar to brushed metal but it doesn't have the "brushed" look. Thanks for helping! :mac:

I have to agree

I mean, I don't mind a bit of it, Safari and iTunes etc. but everything? Yikes.

i really like the kind of -inbetween- that itunes has.

but if given the option, i would probably say i prefer aqua over brushed metal in most instances.

Nothing beats Uno for simplicity. Although most Shapeshifter Themes are far nicer, not everyone has Shapeshifter, and some don't want to run it.
