Prettier text dialogs in OS X scripts

Question

I'm getting pretty sick of these default AppleScript and cocoaDialog dialogs:

I'd like to replace them with something closer to this:

Has anyone made a shell executable like cocoaDialog with a custom look for windows? Are there any other options for getting less ugly text dialogs in shell scripts or AppleScripts?

An apparently very popular one is 24U Appearance OSAX.

It will let you add more components to the dialog windows through "Better Dialog Utility" – if that's what you meant.

There seem to be official themes and 3rd-party themers.
