I just installed it and it is beautiful. Thank you very much for doing this!
BTW I installed it initially on my PowerMac just before I sold it and now installed it on my iBook. I love it and it makes it even more of a pleasure to use. This was a great idea and great execution.

I used 'Regular' across the board. I found the medium too bold, and the thin too hard to read - as smaller text often ended up being only 1px. thick.

I'm with eyoungren here. It's not that the simplicity of iOS7 is wrong, I like simplicity and skeuo...whatever was an aberration, good riddance. What I would go for would be a grayscale iOS7. It's the coloUrs I can't stand...
P.S.
Mr. Ive ... Just in case you're reading this: I love your work. Don't listen to a luddite like me. I post on a PPC forum, run 10.6 on my intel macs and have not even updated my iPhone4 past iOS 5.1.1
RGDS,
I don't have access to a Mountain Lion capable Mac ('06 Mac Pro) & know that the dock differs from previous iterations of OS X so the installer almost definitely would muck things up. So I wouldn't go there.
I'm toying with the idea of releasing an Intel version but wouldn't know where to distribute it & get the word out - as the community isn't in the same vain as what we have here in PowerPC land
.An alternative would be to just apply the fonts, icons & wallpapers, and then download something like Mirage.

Ah, thanks for the tip. Though testing will take a while. 10.9 buggered up my macbook a bit. Not bad overall tbh, just very very beta.
Mavericks. The theme works fine. Once I realized installing it on top of the Mountain Lion theme was a bad idea.
There's a 'Send a Request' link on the site. Send 'em over & I'll get right on it

That is very cool of you to do this for the PPC faithful. These themes keep ol' Leopard looking new

Can we send requests without using Twitter?
Seconded. I can't list all my apps in 140 characters.
Try hitting the 'Contact' button in the sidebar to send me an email.
Thanks for that! I saw the contact button, but didn't want to be presumptuous and email a request when you already had a dedicated avenue for those requests. So thank you again!

Due to being stupid busy lately I'm pushing back the update until sometime in Q1 2014. However this won't be a little incremental update - this'll be V2.0 with over 100 new icons!
Watch this space!
