From the Appearance and Highlight Color pop-up menus, choose your color variations.
The Appearance pop-up menu defines the colors that normally show up on windows, buttons, and so on. The Highlight Color pop-up menu defines the color of items that you select.
From the Sidebar Icon Size pop-up menu, choose the size of icons in the Sidebar of the Finder window.
Select the radio buttons and check boxes to adjust how the scroll bars work.
