make a blank application with a blank icon

Bumping this post for justice!

hahah loveee that, just droppin my two cents, i think the new dock looks much better then the tiger one, but i only got tiger recently so i guess i haven't gotten as used to it as some of you guys, the only thing i would want to see is the icons looking more 3d because the look that apple was going for was that the dock looks like a 3d table going backwards into the screen, but the icons look somehow like flat peices of paper just standing up on this 3d table, by the way to everyone, very nice dock editing, some of them look very amazing

i cant tell if u were being sarcastic, that my stupidity is so stupid its funny, but hey, i not the gui person anyway lol

Speaking of "flat icons", that is what is turning me off cover flow in Finder. Icons are designed to look "sorta 3D". Album covers are usually flat pieces of paper, so it looks fine to see them at an odd angle. An icon however, looks really strange when treated as a 2-d image.

Here is an example using the standard component icon. Can you put a cube on it's diagonal and have it look like this?

O no i meant i love your ingeniutiy, sorry if you thought something otherwise but i love clever stuff like that




Yea but then they should change the engine of cover flow for 3dish icons, i don't know exactly if its just a skew or actual 3d tilting but for the icons they should use real 3d, i think for the pictures they use skewing to acheive the effect

numberz: do you mind sharing your files? Looks very nice.

hi all

i'm running leopard 9a499 and the background don't change. indicator and frontline changed but not background (scurve.png). i changed scurve.png as indicate but can't see any changes for the background.

if anyone can help it will be nice

regards

ah, that makes more sense

Can anyone comment as to whether scurve.png still exists ? I don't seem to have this file...

is it possible ot make the menubar more transparent like 466? i know many dint like that but i wanna try it out

thanks

Does anyone know how to change the login window background (in the Desktop Pictures folder it's called Aurora)? What are they thinking of? Has Apple been taken over by Scientology?

Try Changing the DefaultDesktop.jpg in /System/Library/CoreServices/

Hope it works...



This Dock customizing is so cool!

Can you by chance post the changed files? That dock looks cool!

There you go.

The first thing to do of course is to back up the whole Dock.app and then drop the pics there and replace them.

hmm when i replace the images simply by draging them in the folder and authenticating it dosent seem to change anything :S

You have to "kill" the Dock before any changes take place. This can be done by typing in terminal:

yea i did that too still no change.and i used these files, can anyone check and confirm if these files work properly?

Take many copies of that scurve-l.png and name them:
scurve-l.png, scurve-xl.png, scurve-m.png and scurve-sm.png

Copy all those files to the Resources folder and then that killall Dock, if that will help

Thanks! It did!

hi all

does someone knows where i can find graphics of "time machine 3D dock" ? (the one with 'cancel', 'date', 'restore'). i can't find.

thanks

Hello People

Like most of you out there I think leo's Dock needs some tweaking.
Of course I read everything about changing the pictures.
But does somebody know how to reduce the shadow that outlines the top of every icon in this Dock.
It's wayyy too much. I found some of you like to put a black BG to make it less obvious
but is there a tweak for that one hidden somewhere?
Thanks a lot!

I like it. Especially since you aren't a prick about not sharing like some people here. Ramm, it's just photoshop a$$hole, don't quit your day job.

Those look suspiciously vector to me. So I doubt they're there.

thanks for answer

regards

Does anyone know of a way to modify the scrollbar/ scrollbar buttons? I want to replace them with the iTunes ones.

I have tried to modify every file as list in pre posts , but I can't get any good result..any relaunch of dock leave me with the same default look..
any ideas??

Finally got around to making my own. Wanted a 'smooth' metal as the perforated metal is passe. If anyone wants this, I'll be happy to upload it.

Cheers!

Nice one. I Like a dark dock better.

Nice job macprodan, can you upload those files, pretty please.

hi all

here is mine at the moment

regards

Yes, please!

I like the macprodan job too, even if I haven't understood where I got it wrong yet..
I must copy the files inside included in the zipppies around only or i have to replace every size of the varoius image = scurve s scurve xl and so on?

Still playing around, new version with reflection.

Sorry I really think it's not a dumb question, so any news on how to modify the icons top shadows instead?

That's coded in. You'd need to wait for someone to come up with a hack that works via Application Enhancer.

Thank you for your answer wisequark

Here is the Link for the Dark Dock

If you look at the updated screenshots on the official page, there are no more crappy shadows on the dock icons since the 26 date announcement [UPDATE: Unless I'm fooled cause of the dark BG].
Hope 9A581 (or the GM) is just like that. However there is still the "abbey road" crosswalk separator . well... a tribute to the Beatles I guess

how could you split the applications on the dock by categories? please gimme a tutorial, thanks~

for the GM 9A581 it is the file "indicator_large.png" to change the indicator. It only applies if the Dock is on the bottom

I can't get leopard final to change.

try this apps
the app MUST BE PLACED IN APPLICATION FOLDER! AND MUST BE NAMED docktweak (im still learning applescript )
sorry for my bad english ^^

thanks, it is pretty cool.

yeah that's very very cool!!! Please keep on working. A 2D Dock in white would be great too. thanx for this app.

Hi, thank You all, i have changed my dock and it now looks

but now i want to make applications to resize not to

but to something like this:

Would it be possible?
Thank You.

Heres mine

macprodan: Can you reupload your dock to some other site? I can't download from megaupload.
