Apple Gazette, a heretofore unknown Mac rumors site, claims that Apple will replace Aqua with a new look-and-feel codenamed Illuminous in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, scheduled for release sometime in 2007.
The conjecture states that:
What will Illuminous look like? That’s anybody’s guess at this point, but we might be seeing some hints of what Illuminous holds in the recent release of iTunes.
God, I hope this proves to be false. iTunes 7 is the ugliest piece of software Apple has released in a very long time. To be perfectly honest, I think that Panther (excluding the creepy brushed-metal Finder) was really the pinnacle of OS X’s User Experience. I guess the only place to go after that is down. I really hope this is false. I don’t want to make iRooster look like iTunes 7.

I thnk that Illuminous will rather go Aperture and iPhoto way, rather than iTunes, I am dying to see this “dark age” rewamp ASAP, cos black, dark bacgrounds and dialog boxes help you focus on certain stuff your workin on..
