TUAW Desktop of the Week for 3/04 - 3/10/07



Our TUAW Desktop of the Week didn't make the cut because of some wild assortment of applications or montage of interestingness. No, this week we decided to keep it simple and old school with think different from Flickr user 1000things (though the roaming ladybug is a nice, yet weird, touch). The old-school Apple logo is keeping it real front and center, while the 'think different' writing actually belongs to 1000things herself. Don't adjust your ColorSync settings, however - the black appearance of the menubar and iTunes are courtesy of Unsanity's Shapeshifter, an app that can skin Mac OS X with new colors, icons and styles.

If you'd like to see your unique, functional or otherwise interesting desktop featured in our TUAW Desktops of the Week series, check out past featured desktops as well as the original post for the rules and to get an idea of what we're looking for. Then, upload your desktop screenshot to our TUAW Desktops Flickr group. We'll feature one or more desktops each weekend, giving credit to the desktop owner, wallpaper creator and any apps featured in the screenshot (if available). Keep those desktops rolling in!

"Think different" is grammatically correct. They're not asking you to think differently, but to think about the concept of difference. Like "Think Pink."

"'Different' is not an adverb."

And "Think Differently" isn't a slogan.

Shapeshifter and APE work better on Intel Macs now, if they're both properly updated. It's still a slight hit, which may or may not be noticeable to some users.

I use Aqua with APE disabled for about 80% of my computer use. The rest of the time, I'm obsessed with a random theme.
