Not bad. I like what you did to notfication center. Looks better than the gray lines and easier to read.
I asked the same earlier in the thread. Even though i don't have Mountan Lion here is what i was told:
The path is Mac HD/System/Library/Coreservices/Notification Center
Once you find that it show package contents and then from there: Contents/Resources
The background is called linen and it is a tiff file. All you have to do is just replace that tiff file with another image saved as a tiff format (in preview you can export your image if need be as a tiff) and then open up activity monitor. From there just quit notification and it'll restart itself and click the notification tab to see your changes. The way the background works is that it tiles itself. So if you're using an image or something I tried keeping a minimum width of about 500 pixels or so and adjust it accordingly. Don't forget to save the original linen tiff
It's two GeekTool shell scripts, one of them containing nothing (that's the white bar that's the bigger one and the backdrop). Here's the script for the actual calendar:
Code:
echo `cal`" " |
sed "s/[^0-9]$(date +%e | sed s'/ //')\([^0-9]\)/ $(date +%e | sed 's/ *\([0-9]*\)/[31m\1[0m/')\1/" |
sed s'/ $//' |
sed s'/Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa//g' |
sed s'/ / \ /g' |
sed s'/\([a-z]\)[ ]\ ./\1/g' |
sed s'/\[ ]*\/ /'|
sed s"/$/ $(date +%A)/"jW

Could you please tell me more about this background? The detail and design of the octopus is fantastic and the use of negative space on the chest is very attractive. Id like to look up the artists work for further ink.
Thanks
