Thanks Corbin, it works great (unfortunately I can't draw the gradient depending on the window size (so it's always white on top and black on bottom, no matter how high the window is, for example), but I guess that still gives possibilities for skinning).. I will join the Iain's question.. Is it possible to somehow alter the color of the title text? Or at least set the title to @"", and draw manually NSAttributedString in that title area?
