Hello everyone, hello Tom,

Your theme looks beautiful on my 14 years old PowerMac G5 (1.8). 3 weeks ago I decided to replace the normal hard drive for a new ssd. It works nice together with your LeopardRebirth theme. But, i have a small problem with the 'About this Mac' window. Is there maby a solution for the little thing? Thank you in advance for your help.

Greetings from Holland,
Jelle

As said, it's because your computer isn't in English. I can help you fix it later today.

The ATM window is modified by changing the .NIB file. If you change the language to anything else than English, it uses a localized .NIB file instead, which contains the ATM window in the language selected. The only way to get it to display correctly is to either set the system language to English, replace the Dutch .NIB file with the modified English one, or go the long way and translate the English .NIB to Dutch, and replace the original Dutch .NIB with the translated LeopardRebirth .NIB file.

I helped @PrinterJelle fix the issue, you just have to move the ATM files from the English folder to the Dutch folder in loginwindow

It does look a little out of place on a Dutch OS though. It wouldn't take much XCode work to translate it.
Yeah, I was going to make an Italian translation for @pochopsp but I didn't know if this method would work because I didn't have Italian on my computer and I got confused. But I get it now. Once I'm back at my computers on Friday I'll start making a few ATM translations and offer downloads/instructions here (possibly in a new thread). Maybe I can even work with SST to get the languages integrated into his installer.

Thanks Henry! Your current solution is great, but it would be even better to have translated "About this Mac " files :D

Is it just me or did you make the menubar translucent? My Mac Mini has no optional translucent menu bar but after applying the theme it definitely is. Looks pretty good!

I have the exact same Mac mini as you (1.5GHz) and it has no translucent menu bar either. But after installing LeoRebirth, it had a translucent menu bar. This theme does install a translucent menu bar.

They helped too:

@HFTaylor12,
@Gamer9430,
@MacCubed
And all the MacRumors PowerPC users! :D

( the installer will install a black dock if you don't select an option to use a white one, The white one causes hitbox issues if you don't hide it)

"Security"? What is there to secure about the PPCStore? From what I can tell, it loads a webpage, and when you click on a link to download an app it opens the link in your web browser. No security problems there! :D
It's maybe a little more complex than that, i have multiple images for different platforms to manage, the app database system is self coded in php, and much more...
[doublepost=1494942302][/doublepost]AND, i don't won't people stealing my code to make any malicious store or anything
[doublepost=1494942356][/doublepost]I'm not really talking about front end security, more back end

Impressive! However, I don't see why it has to be this complex, other than to hide your code... and to be honest I don't think anyone in the PowerPC Macs section of MacRumors is going to be making malicious software out of the PPCStore. :D

If anyone is making malicious software out of the PPC Store, we will send an Intel their way...
