Dang it, how did you get that dock? Is it cDock? I never managed to make it look that good![]()
Excuse the mess-It's entirely possible to change the menu bar appearance on macOS Monterey. Both Dark mode and Light mode.. my screenshot reflects the light mode

The menubar highlight fits nicely with the wallpaper. Nice work, Allan.
Thank you so much, Gerrit.
Although it was merely a test on what can be done.
But I won't lie. I did try to find a good enough wallpaper for what I had done with the menu bar and its highlight.
It's a rather bombastic menu bar highlight.
I used an app called "Dynamic Wallpaper Engine" which is from the Mac App Store. I believe it costs $3 though but definitely worth it as they have a huge collection of moving wallpapers and you can add your own too if you like.

Thank you.
Do the animations, such as minimizing and maximizing windows get laggy for you when you turn tile reflections on in cDock? I am having that problem, everything looks ok until I turn tile reflections on, then system animations become laggy.
Restored Spitfire N3200...
N3200 was recovered in 1986 after years of being buried in the sands at Sangatte. It was acquired in 2000 by Dr.Philip Kaplan and Simon Marsh. Historic Flying Limited – appropriately at its former base at Duxford – were commissioned to restore N3200 to its original specification. The Aircraft Restoration Company and Retro Track and Air also participated in its restoration.
Following its successful restoration N3200 returned to the air in 2014. In 2015 it was generously donated to the nation by Dr.Kaplan and his family.
What is notable about N3200 is that it is a Spitfire that flies in an early specification before the major modifications followed in time for the Battle of Britain thus it is a time capsule of how early Spitfires handled.
The Spitfire Mk.1 entered service with the RAF in 1938 and 19 Squadron at Duxford were the first to receive the new fighter which had first flown in March 1936.

Having a wallpaper with a background story that resonates with you... Well done bhtwo !
Thanks Gerrit...
Model is from a flight sim (not MSFS) my paint tho.
I had the great fortune to be taken to Duxford for a day out last year.
It was a beautiful day and the only aircraft flying were spittys!
A cold beer by the perimeter and the sound of merlins!
So evocative.
Stretched to fit on a 27” monitor… looks good. The Mac Picasso has been around forever, and the Apple Think different marketing campaign was many years ago… All put together using Affinity Photo.
