NightShade is my first attempt at a Kaleidoscope Color Scheme and I discovered that it's harder than I at first thought. I based the design on Eclipse (a scheme that comes with Kaleidoscope) and Kronos (part of Dave's Kaleidoscope Extras), but most of the artwork is original.
To use NightShade, drop it into the Kaleidoscope Color Schemes folder (located inside your Extensions folder), then open Kaleidoscope and select it from the available schemes.
Note: NightShade supports accent colors just like the Aaron color scheme. Be sure to select the accent color you like best. Also, NightShade changes your folder icons but you need to restart your Macintosh to see the change.
NightShade is E-MailWare. If you like it, send e-mail. E-mail is also good for sending your suggestions, comments, and ideas for new color schemes.

Version History
Version 1.0.1
• Changed the NightShade logo a little. The old one was just too dark and poorly dithered.
• Tried to tone down a couple of the accent colors (gold and crimson) so they aren't quite so obnoxious. Personally, I prefer turquoise or silver anyway.
• Minor changes to improve resource handling.
Version 1.0
• Inaugural release
