| | I know how to change the default shell on a Windows OS. In case you do not know what i an talking about look at the attached file. That is not a Vista system i have just changed the shell to look like a Vista shell.
How do i do this with a Mac? Every time i look it up on Google i come across the Shell program/application. I don't want to make it look like Windows Vista, but i would like to know how and where to change it.
If you want to know how to change your windows shell PM me, but that is not why i made this topic although people always ask me on other forums when i asked about this haha. |

I have never seen something like this done on the mac. I have worked with people who are designers and like them a lot, and they dont ever look like they would be interested in doing something like this. I have an alienware skin installed that I downloaded from their webpage. It looks really cool. Is the shell the same thing as skinning the operating system?

Flakes, if i am not mistaken, yes, skinning the OS is the same as changing the shell. I am actually a graphic designer, actually in college getting a degree for it, and that is why i got a mac. I was just wondering if i could somehow make some mods to it!

There is a VERY big difference between a theme and a shell on Macs. Okay, remember, OSX is UNIX. A shell on a mac, or any other Unix machine, is how you access the command line (DOS/command prompt like interface) The default Shell for Unix is something called BASH. There are a few other "Shell's" one can set up and use as the command line interface. I tend to stick with BASH but others like tcsh and others. For more information please consult wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_shellThe term you are looking for is "Theme" or "Desktop Theme". Don't want to nitpick, but I came in this thread expecting to help someone switch their shell from bash to tsch or some other Unix Shell.

Sorry i didn't even know it wasn't called a Shell on Macs. I knew they were UNIX, but it didnt even cross my mind. Thanks for the link, but i already knew that the shell was the "command prompt" on a Mac. I said that in the first post.

Your Love Can Change Your Enemies!

Because God first loved him, even when he was still a sinner! Yes, God’s love came
unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. However, this is the most important reason
why we should love God always. Loving God is also closely linked to loving others. The Bible says,

not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given ....

hosting--and saw that I was in violation of a rule I did not know about. My username is the name of
my organization, which is what I plan on my site being about--I thought this was appropriate, given
the nature of this forum. However, looking at the rules I can see the pretense for all of th....
