Sorry, I couldn't resist the pretentious opening! Anyway, Ozymandias 1.5 is a color scheme for Kaleidoscope version 1.5, the new version of the incredibly cool Macintosh interface-altering control panel by Greg Landweber. Simply place the Ozymandias file in the "Kaleidoscope Color Schemes" folder in your Extensions folder, open the Kaleidoscope 1.5 control panel, select Ozymandias, and marvel at how I wasted my time when I could have been working or reading a book or getting some fresh air.
The hand that mocked them:
Ozymandias 1.5 is a remake of an earlier color scheme, also named Ozymandias, for the first release of Kaleidoscope. Please bring any bugs or problems or complaints pertaining to the Ozymandias color scheme to my attention as soon as possible, since this will enable me to correct them.
A shattered visage:
In case you're seeing this by accident somehow and don't already know, Kaleidoscope 1.5 is available from the Kaleidoscope Home Page at http://www.seagull.net/kaleidoscope/ or from a variety of mirror sites and archives across the Internet. Remember to pay your shareware fee!
I met a traveler from an antique land:
Special thanks to Layne "Blue Sky Guy" Karkruff for advice and encouragement. Visit his Blue Sky Heart Graphics site at http://home.earthlink.net/~bluskyguy/ for even cooler Kaleidoscope color schemes and the shiniest icons available anywhere. Prepare to be dazzled. Leo Breebaart offered further encouragement and suggested a golden Apple Menu icon. Thanks also to Kobe Kendrick for his early support and to Greg Landweber and Frederick Bass for making Kaleidoscope in the first place.
Its sculptor well those passions read which yet survive:
Also thanks to Percy Bysshe Shelley for writing the cool poem excerpted at random intervals on this page, to Roy Thomas for introducing many thousands of readers (including yours truly) to that poem, and to Alan Moore, Dave Gibbons, and John Higgins for introducing us all to Adrian Veidt without whom et cetera and so forth.
The lone and level sands stretch far away:
If you absolutely hate this color scheme and want someone to complain to, or if you want to say something nice about it and brighten my day, direct your comments and criticisms to Richard Bensam at rabensam@earthlink.net, or visit my Kaleidoscopic Creations web page concealed somewhere at http://home.earthlink.net/~rabensam/ and see the other color schemes I have released, as well as other stuff I do to waste my time.
