Thanks! The app is Usage: https://usage.pro
Installed this. I'm primarily an iStat Menus person, but since my menubar is hidden it's nice to have some widgets. I don't seem to have the colors shown in some pics but I imagine that might be because I haven't purchased it. Not sure I want a subscription for what I've already paid Bjango once for. But otherwise, a nice app.

I have ten displays, six of which are primary and have a wallpaper that spans all six. The other four are secondary and individual. As in the past, I'll leave everything off, except for one that I worked on recently. It just clutters up the thread to keep reposting stuff that hasn't changed.

Anyway, this is on one of my primary displays (30" Apple Cinema Display).

The two women on the left have not changed (Polgara from David Eddings books (far left) and Amanda Blake from Gunsmoke), but the two on the right were swapped in.

Barbara Stanwyck. The original is B&W. I colored it. Absolutely no idea if the dress color is right.

Raelynn 'Ryn' Tsair from Echoes of the End (video game) is on the right. Mocap/voice actress is Aldís Amah Hamilton. There's a reason the burst behind her is the only purple one on my desktop.

My drive icons didn't update with Tahoe? Or was that something that was removed. Could have sworn they were supposed to change.
Yeah they're supposed to change automatically, but the generic icon for USB drives is still the old one at the moment. I imagine that'll change in a future release.

Any custom drive icons you manually changed prior to upgrading to Tahoe will remain the same as well, I imagine.

I've changed my desktop wallpaper again on the Mac mini, to the silver 'iMac' wallpaper. Because I'm super pedantic though, I edited the image so that from afar it just reads 'Mac' as opposed to 'iMac' 😅

I've had this wallpaper in my folder for over 15 years and felt like it fit the liquid glass theme too well not to use. Time is a flat circle or something. The default Cheetah through Tiger wallpapers work great as well if you're in a nostalgic mood.
