I made this for fun. :P
GTK Theme based on Lauri Taimila's theme http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/show.php?content=56577
and maruo's Kougyoku http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Kougyoku-aqua?content=60804

#####NOTES#####
This theme is based on OSX Tiger Theme and Kougyoku. The icon theme is based on Mac4Lin.
This theme requires that you have the mac menubar applet (by AqD) or the new global menu.
Choose the one by AqD if you want the application title name next to the menu (the bolded text).

4) Double-click on the Platinum.emerald theme, and an Emerald file browser should pop up. You should select the Platinum.emerald theme at this point and click Open, then select the Platinum theme.
#####PANELS#####

PS I would recommend not using firefox 2 for preview purposes ;) Switch to version 3 (under the "developers" tab) It used the proper GTK buttons and such among other things.
