[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1481092, member: 131855"] Nice hob guys. I've avoided theming since my earliest days with the Mac. At first because it drove my wife nuts. Later because it made taking screenshots for articles a problem because the look of the OS didn't match. I'll second Stretch's notion of using a bootable clone in these situations instead of a Time Machine backup. With a Time Machine backup your nice clean system files from before the customization, which you will want if you need to return things to normal, may be overwritten with the customized files if Time Machine identifies them as modified.
