Publisher's Description
From Unsanity:
ShapeShifter is a revolutionary new product that lets you change the overall appearance of your Mac using 'themes'. We're not talking about just desktop backgrounds and icons here, we're talking about everything - the look of windows, menus, apps, buttons, absolutely everything. You don't wear the same clothes everyday, your house doesn't look exactly like your neighbor's - why should the computing interface you use everyday be any different. You personalize your physical workspace to suit your tastes and whims, so why not your Mac?
With ShapeShifter, you can:
- Change the overall appearance of your operating system safely, quickly, and reliably;
- Change the appearance of individual apps to match your theme and your mood;
- Experience things that haven't been possible with Mac themes before;
- Quickly preview themes without actually applying them;
- Install different themes for different users;
- Add and remove themes effortlessly.
What's new in this version:
- ShapeShifter no longer causes instabilities when used with Apple's Pro applications.
- ShapeShifter now works properly with beta versions of Safari 3.
- Cocoa pull-down menus now use the correct text color when pressed.
- Cocoa box titles now use the correct text color.
- guiTweak now presents a more informative error dialog when an insurmountable error prevents tweaking from concluding properly.
- ShapeShifter now honor's Camino's "CAMINO_DISABLE_HACKS... See all new features

"GOD AWFUL !"
Version: ShapeShifter 2.5
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Look, these guys have been trying to make this work since the beginning. It crashes, it doesn't work, it NEVER worked. I bought the first versions when I started in OSX and after being the free beta tester for this horrid little program I finally gave up. So here I come back to see if it's improved , well , I don't have my password , that was when I had another email, so I write them, not a word. Their stupid password recovery system is based on the email you had back then WHICH YOU PROBABLY DONT HAVE !
Think I'm going to pay again for what ended up being a reason to do a complete reinstall ? H E double hockey sticks no ! Lousy crashmaster program that isn't supported ! Dump that junk ! -

"Shapeshifter screwed up everything"
Version: ShapeShifter 2.5
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I installed Shapeshifter 2.5 (registered) onto my MacPro and rebooted. Then everytime I tried opening ANY PROGRAM that program would fail to open and I'd get a window asking if I want to report the crash. Tossing the Shapeshifter APE in the trash solved my problem. Shapeshifter 2.5 will remain in the trash until this is fixed. -
"Shapeshifter 2.5 makes system unusable"
Version: ShapeShifter 2.5
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
ShapeShifter 2.5 totally screwed up my system to the point where no program could be opened at all. I had to toss SS 2.5 from the APE enabled to the APE disabled folder and restarting. Binned SS2.5 and waiting for 2.6. -

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
No problem using it but I have PPC on all my Macs not Intel. I have never needed the developer for anything so I guess I understand the frustation of some of the guys here.
