SmoothStripes is a ShapeShifter theme that improves Aquas appearance by refining parts of the GUI.

These are the changes over regular Aqua:
- Removes stripes.
- Metal style from iTunes 6 applied system wide.
- Improves Titlebar buttons.
- Option to make titlebar buttons Blue.
- Improves scrollbars to a more crisp Aqua style.
- Improves progressbars to a more crisp Aqua style.
- Improves small and large Round Buttons to a more crisp Aqua style.
- Improves bevel buttons to a more crisp Aqua style.
- Improves Small Push buttons (like in the Finder copy dialog) to a more crisp Aqua style.

What's New:

  • Added appskin with new the new style metal buttons for Font Book, Address Book, Calculator, iPhoto, iChat, iCal, QuickTime and VLC. These are included as optional installs for those of you who use the package installer.
  • Bundled a desktop picture called “Aqua Refined” by Blue Rocket.
  • Changed the corners of regular windows and the menubar caps to be less rounded to fix issues with shadows and for consistency.
  • Changed the global metal buttons to use the style from iTunes 6.
  • Changed slider tracks to be the same style as the volume slider in iTunes 6.
  • Changed the size of the round button to better align with glyphs placed on it.
  • Changed etched text to use less of a bevel, like in iTunes 6. Only affects the guikit versions.
  • Fixed the dimmed title text in certain metal apps (only works in the guikit, the installer still has this problem and it is not fixable)
  • Fixed issues with garbled resources in the iTunes skin.
