I found my old MacBook Black :). I installed Lion and bought 4GB RAM (usable only 3GB :( oh got why), and maybe I change disk to 180GB SSD (now stock 120GB HDD).

Finished upgrading to Mavericks. Where the heck did this "magical" extra 512MB of VRAM come from? :confused:

I think it now takes some memory from RAM or something like that. They talked about in keynote, just can't remember how exactly everything works.

Integrated graphics uses RAM for VRAM anyway. In Mavericks it will increase or decrease VRAM usage as needed, instead of allocating a fixed amount.

Used Pixelmator, Apple's cMBP front image and a desktop screenshot to make a custom pic.

Looks good - I put the latest default desktop image as my MBP icon instead of the blue Tiger aqua!

You may want to try emulating the 'shine' going down the right, though - not sure if you can do it in Pixelmator, but in Photoshop just create a white image with the pen tool and have a black to white gradient layer mask - I've attached an example below.

I always like customising things like this :p

Thanks! I will give it a try sometime. I got sick of the default image, and since already I customize allot of my app icons, I figured "why not?" especially since I always see the image being edited by hackintosh users.
