So I decided to see how clotted and congested I could get my Menu Bar. Anyone dare try and out Menu Bar me?

Speaking of Menubar, are there any ways to "hide" it, or make it automatically hide like in Windows XP? I know that you can customise it with themes (btw, what are your fave themes, I am just starting out, and don't know what to get, post links here to if possible).
 
There is an API method to hide the menu bar, but it's generally discouraged in OS X as it is bad UI. After reading the menufela comments, I see why.
 
I tried menufela .. I think it would be handy.. there are times when I wouldn't mind hiding the menu, but menufela hides the dock too ... which sucks.
 
Could you guys identify the icons in your menu bars? I like looking at what other people have so I can see if there are things I'm missing out on... and I don't always recognize the apps, especially for apps I don't have myself!

Here's my mine:

Spotlight
Fast User Switching
Clock
Battery Meter
Volume
Airport
Bluetooth (keyboard attached)
Display Prefs

Textpander

How did you change your Spotlight icon? Change it in the package contents of something?
