I don't like Lion's grey scrollbars. They're dull, ugly and sad.

I want the really cool blue glass scrollbars that I saw in the store.

Is it possible to change my scrollbars back to those? If so, how?
 
Yes! Download Lion Tweaks. Don't have a link handy, just Google it. Does other cool stuff too. Freebie of course.

Awesome! Thank you Kevin! :D

Ok I downloaded and installed Lion Tweaks. Which of the options changes to the old, blue glass scrollbars?
 
I reckon the new scroll bar is much better. We don't click or use scroll bar anyway, we use "Multi Touch" technology :D I think you should try it and you wouldn't want to look at the scroll bar anymore :)
That's just my opinion.

Lion came pre-installed on my iMac, and I've been using it since August 17th ish or so. Besides, there's no difference in the functionality of the multi-touch as far as the scrollbar is concerned. I got a new iMac at work that has Snow Leopard on it with the blue scrollbars and I love them way better than the sad, gray, drab scrollbars on Lion, so I want my iMac with Lion to have the blue pretty scrollbars.

Now, in Lion Tweaks where do I change the sad grey scrollbars to be the pretty blue ones?
 
Heeeellloooooo? Anyone?

I have Lion Tweaks installed. So how do I change to the old blue scrollbars? I'm dying here with grey scrollbar ugliness hate! :D :D :D :D
