Time at Sunset

What I used:

1) GeekTool (Available for free on the Mac AppStore)

 

2) Photoshop (Pixelmator or any other image editing software is fine)

 

3) Nocturne (Free software by BlackTree code.google.com/p/blacktree-nocturne/)

 

4) Wallpaper (Sunset at Sea from wallpapers-place.com/nature/sunset-at-sea-hd-wallpaper/)

 

5) Terminal, just to make the Dock 2D instead of the regular glass dock

 

6) Font: Helvetica Neue - Ultra Light (comes with every Mac)

 

What I did:

1) GeekTool: Displays the time and date. Time in words is a Geeklet called Fuzzy Time which can be found here www.macosxtips.co.uk/geeklets/system/display-time-in-word...

 

2) Photoshop: Erase of the image except for the clouds and the glow of the sun. Set the original image as the wallpaper and overlay this on top using GeekTool

 

3) Nocturne: Great app that turns your Menu bar black, works best when translucent menu bar is set to 'off' in System Preferences

 

4) Terminal: Only if you want the flat 2D dock instead of the usual glass tray. Paste the following in Terminal and hit Return

defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean yes; killall Dock

When you want the glass dock, just replace 'yes' with 'no' and run it again

 

Done
