I love the new Leopard. Mine biggest complaint is the unApple like ugliness of the GUI. The purple desktop pic and the glassy dock, luckily they both can be easily changed. I like the translucent menu bar, but the blue Spotlight color just doesn't belong. How can I change that?

I don't care for the translucent Menubar, but what irritates me more is the different font in the Help menu. What's that about? 😕

Well, there's always Graphite in the Appearance pane...

I did wonder about that too. Very strange indeed.

I think it's the same font, only smaller.

It's probably because there's so many more items in the Help menu than in all the other menu dropdowns. 🙄 I too wish they'd try for a little consistency.

Its not the number of items as I have other drop downs with many more items that have the larger font size. It could be the search item is doing something? 😕

EDIT: Its the same size as the spotlight menu items. I see your reasoning now jsw. That must be the reason.

Back on topic. The blue colour is a little inconsistent, I agree.
