 Learning From Kaleidoscope
 by Matt Chisholm, in Themes - Sat, Oct 18th 2003 00:00 UTC

Back in the heady days of Macintosh System 7.5, Greg Landweber released Aaron, which changed the system's windows and buttons to match the "Platinum" appearance of the upcoming MacOS 8 (codenamed "Copland" after the composer Aaron Copland). Hacked versions of Aaron quickly appeared with the MacOS 8 images replaced by images of the hacker's creation. Landweber realized he had a cash cow and released Kaleidoscope, which could switch "schemes" on the fly.

 A Plea for Clear Theme Copyrights
 by Devin Carraway, in Themes - Sat, Nov 2nd 2002 00:00 UTC

This is a brief request on behalf of distribution maintainers, intended for those who produce and edit themes and their content. In it, I make a request for clarity and thoroughness in the copyright and license terms applied to themes, to make it easier to include your themes in Free Software distributions.

 The Antidesktop
 by jeff covey, in Themes - Sat, Oct 12th 2002 00:00 UTC

Over the years, I've used 4Dwm, Afterstep, Blackbox, Enlightenment, FVWM, Icewm, KWM, PWM, Sawfish, Window Maker, and wmx, and played with many other window managers. I used Window Maker more than any other, but generally would only stick with one for a couple of months before getting restless and trying something else. Finally, though, I settled on a setup I've used exclusively for over a year. It's decidedly not for everyone, but may be of interest to some.

 Those Messy TrueTypes
 by Ingmar Schuster, in Themes - Sat, May 4th 2002 00:00 UTC

Recently, I downloaded about 2,000 free fonts. Most of them are of high quality, but you can easily imagine my problem: There are just too many of them for one graphics designer. I don't have time to browse through them all to find the one optimal for my needs.
