I spent a few more minutes on Metallifizer: Panther Edition yesterday in between updates of WindowShade X for Panther, and achieved some better results:
As you can see, metal is no longer in the window, and the curved sides on the bottom side of the window are gone too, which matches Aqua windows. The only glitch remaining is related to the splitter area in between the left shortcuts area and main file view: it is not getting properly erased so if you drag it around, you can see trails on it. But that is pretty much fixable, I just have to devote some more time to it.

Excellent! Please keep up the good work and save us from brushed metal. :)
Does this hack apply to other metal Carbon apps like iTunes and QuickTime?
Posted by: Matt Martinez on October 4, 2003 1:25 AMSadly, not iTunes or QuickTime as they do not use the system-supplied brushed metal and have their entirely own implementation.
Posted by: slava on October 4, 2003 2:30 AMBesides any redraw bugs that may be happening, the resize box on the bottom is wrong as well, if you see what I mean.
Posted by: Stevos on October 4, 2003 1:35 PMGlad to know we won't be stuck in brushed finder when Panther is out.
Posted by: NetworkShadow on October 4, 2003 7:22 PMYou RULE!!!! I've been busy hating the look of the panther finder, but it looks like you are going to save us..... very nice and many thanks. I'll be near the front of the line...
The only question now is... when when when? Those of us already living with Panther have a desire to know....
Posted by: Telusman on October 7, 2003 9:29 PMI wonder if you sell enough copies of this apple will get the idea that brushed metal looks awful...
Posted by: daveo on October 8, 2003 7:26 AMArgh! The new version of iCal isn't un-metalifized by Metallifizer! Please help - brushed metal is so ugly it makes me want to worship Satan.
Posted by: Jeremy on October 8, 2003 12:37 PMThe new iCal is not De-Metalfilized, but the effect is kinda "interesting".
Posted by: petey on October 9, 2003 1:14 AMPlease rid us of the brushed metal on the new iCal
Posted by: Steven Wise on October 9, 2003 11:20 PMIs it possible to bring back empty horizontal scroll bar wells in the New Finder... they don't show up until a scroll thumb actually appears. Which sucks because my icons get cut off when it appears.
It's inconsistent really... List view has empty scroll wells, icon view has nothing at all, and column view only has vertical empty scroll wells. Oh wells.
