[sldev] A new look for the Second Life Viewer

[Argent Stonecutter]

I would just like to note that while Apple started the trend towards  
glossy overhead-lighted UI elements they've increasingly abandoned  
them or toned them down in more recent versions of OS X.

Tab icons (like in the finder sidebar, or in the top row of the edit  
box in SL) don't tend to have capsules at all.

I don't think you want to emulate OS X directly, but it may be  
worthwhile steering clear of the aggressive glossiness I'm seeing here.

Personally, I prefer Max Rudberg's "Milk" theme to the standard OS X  
one... http://www.maxthemes.com/themes/?theme=Milk... for a light  
interface, the smooth matte buttons look much more professional than  
the glossy ones.

For a less obviously Mac theme that has a lot of the same  
characteristics:

Particularly the original Magnesium style.
