Re: Changing the interface appearance
The only thing you need to modify Scratch is Scratch. Scratch is made in Squeak Smalltalk. To modify Scratch, you need to Shift+Click the loop in the R in the Scratch logo in the upper-left corner of the window. Then turn fill screen off. To access the code, Click the white border around Scratch and go to Open --> Browser (I think).

Re: Changing the interface appearance
Hi nathanprocks, It's nice to know your tips, but now that I have been investigating, I think I only need t get the folder where the is the images and edit it.
I can donwload from the http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Scratch_Source_Code_Licensed_Code, the Scratch UI "Skin" , inside we can find a ScratchSkin1.4.zip folder with the images you can edit.
The problem is now, If you try to find the same folder in your instalation folder, C 
.... yo will not find it to edit.
Then, how can I edit the ScratchSkin1.4.zip downloaded ant after u toguether with the instalation folder?
Thankyou
