Well, under 6.0.7 I had a cdev called "Kolor" that could change the colors
of the menu bars, menus, buttons, dialog boxes, etc.  I haven't tried it
under 7 because I never used it under 6, so didn't bother installing it.
What I don't remember is if the changes were permanent (ie if you made the
menu bar purple, then removed Kolor from the system folder, would themenu
bar *stay* purple).

If it would be any help, I could mail you Kolor...  --Erik
