That&#8217;s where the Quinn Replacement Pack comes in. Including brand new toolbar buttons, a selection of 6 custom backgrounds, and a new piece style.

<p>Firstly, I just made a few minor adjustments to the header. I added some rays, shadows and highlights.</p>
<p>Then I decided to ditch the white menu and main content area for green ones. I also made the menu a little larger. </p>
<p>The main content area was then divided into two sections. One for a short description of the app and the download button. And one for a video demonstration of Growl.</p>
<p>Lastly, I decided to put all the partners and footer content on a nice brown background, to help differentiate between the main content and the sub content. </p>

<p>To kick things off, I textured the background a little.</p>
<p>Then I moved the logo and site navigation, up to the top. And added a nice dark background for the header. </p>
<p>I made the Application titles look slightly indented, for a more professional. Then I made the &#8220;More Info&#8221; and &#8220;Download&#8221; links more prominent, and added some icons.</p>
<p>Lastly I put some faint dividers between the apps and above the copyright.</p>

<p><span id="more-952"></span></p>
<p>As always, I started with the background first. I added a bit of texture and a highlight behind the header. Then I reworked their logo/icon, to something a little more presentable.</p>
<p>Then I added some color to the download buttons. I colored the latest stable release green, to represent go/good. And the latest beta was colored orange, to represent warning/carefulness.</p>
<p>The link colors were changed to a greenish blue, to compliment the download buttons.</p>
<p>Next, I jazzed up the Features section, with nicer bullets and swirls next to the title.</p>
<p>Screenshots were added, to allow visitors to get better idea of what they are downloading.</p>
<p>The &#8220;Support Other Video Sites&#8221; and &#8220;Help&#8221; links, were reworked to stand out more, but not so much that they get in the way.</p>
<p>Finally, I just made some small adjustments to the text, like adding sleek dividers and the &#8220;What is ClickToFlash:&#8221; heading.</p>
