@grbmc hey dude, just saying i love your videos, but i have a quick question. are there any risks to installing and using this software? is it bad for your computer in any way? thanks! keep making vids!

[grbmc]

@swagerez Thanks man. About the risk question. What you're installing is more like files that the software reads. There's not much risk to installing files that modify visuals because the software will operate the same way. We're not modifying code, which would be more dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. If your computer can't read the files correctly then the menubar will simply look bad. It will still work. Back up the files you replace so you can always revert back.

@dansemacabre17 the white font using the method i outlined or the white font with nocturne? using nocturne i pretty much forgot what the font looked like when it messed up but trust me, you don't want to use nocturne with osx lion. it'll just be horrendously ugly. lol

@grbmc good point. didn't realize it didn't work in fullscreen mode. what about white font?

[grbmc]

@dansemacabre17 I've tried nocturne on lion and it doesn't work properly once you go into fullscreen mode. The menubar looks horrible. I recommend this way because it's much more stable since you're changing core files.

or you can save yourself the trouble and install nocturne 2.0

@paulradford2008 I like to use it just as a play at apple really because they use it too much. Not a big deal. Lol. I hope this vid helped though.
