thanks russoodle though its still a work in progress.

theme is a combination of Imetal from deviantart with mac4lin's icons. with buttons in standard pc position.
puppy logo added to brand gnome like other distro's have.
wbar theme is leopard rocketdock bg.
firefox theme (not shown) macosx theme by firelight.
background is my own of course.
system is Lenovo 3000 c200

I would love to have a list of apps that comes with osx10.5 or 10.6 so that i could try to find similar apps in puppy, but that seems to be difficult.

my whole goal is the best looking system i can make.

Hey hexdef....i'd like to suggest you join the Puppy wallpaper thread here, because we're trying to keep all these related things together, instead of bits'n'pieces scattered over different threads....makes it much easier to find what you're looking for and other users will appreciate your offerings, too Wink

haven't been to apple. not sure that they post the extra's list just the main os programs like calculator and such, but i will look. Originally i had thought to post on the main wp post, but decided to post here to show it first.

Check this thread:

but you need a Puppy 4.*.*, not a recent one.

@steve-puppy: look at this...

GNOME 2.32 Puppy --> http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=79737
GNOME 3.2 & 3.42 Puppies --> http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=79793

Get a nice system -- these won't run well on the old clunkers. GNOME is not only huge, it's a massive resource hog. You'll want something Pentium M or better.
