ShapeShifter 1.0.1 released

Unsanity has released a bug-fix & feature update to its themer system add-on. Several bugs have been issued with this release.

Quite an extensive list of changes: "Resolved an issue that could prevent systems using non-English and multi-byte localizations (Japenese, for example) from being able to use ShapeShifter. Resolved issues that could cause application instability in Panther when using themes created for earlier operating systems. Resolved an issue that caused fuzzy Menu Extras, slow window resizing performance, redrawing issues in Safari, and incorrect window transparency in some applications for users running Panther. Added a "Default Aqua Theme" item to the theme list. Added compatibility for "dlta" themes created for OS X versions earlier than 10.2. ... (list is longer...)"
