I think you Mac people like what you like and thats it, they look like round glowing lights on the dock. You've had them arrows on the dock for what seven years now, it's about time some new came along and this looks good.

Except nothing really looks good about it...

I love the 2D dock, blue dots and all.

Cool! Shall have to try this tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up Numberzz.

Then you dont know what looking good looks like, watch for the copiers and besides the new dock has a nice 3D modern look.

Hmmm... a wood grain dock would be pretty sweet

Oh man, that would be killer... and have little screws as indicators... LAWL

lol... I don't know what looks good?

I'm not the one who likes the tacky bubble look that was copied from Microsoft...

You must be confused, I dont like it either and never said I did. By the way, fix your name.

Hmmm.....

Someone's going to write this into an app soon....

Does anyone else want the 3D Dock back for the sides?

^^^

I would... it looks cool on a widescreen.

orly?

And my name is better than your life, so fix your life first.

I like the glowing bubbles on the 2D dock as well, it looks nice, plus, if you make your own custom indicators, it will look just as cool. I would actually like a set of black glowing indicator bubbles.

Wood grain? Screw indicators? GENIUS!

Next:

Plated steel and rivets.

Fur and teeth.

Pirate maps and Xs.

o0o0o.

Now you've done it...

Is there any Leopard substitute for ClearDock? I want to get rid of the background altogether, but ClearDck doesn't work in Leopard.

1. peoples, no arguing.

2. i love absolutely everything about leopard. back in tiger days, i had a registered version of shapeshifter and would alter every bit of it. now that i've got leopard, i don't feel like changing anything. everything looks simply beautiful and perfect.

i think leopard is fantastic... cos there are possibilities for us to modify the overall look and feel of leopard without going thru 3rd party apps...

I have a clear dock right now, and think it's awesome. I manually copied all the bottom dock files, ereased what was in the image files, and used terminal to put them back into the dock.app. The result is really nice....

ayanami, the simplest way to achieve clear dock is to backup the existing scurve files and the frontline file (by renaming them) and then simply deleting them... no need for photoshop work etc... jus backup and delete....

You can type a few things into terminal and it will do this...

I don't care about the look. Just bring back the functionality and efficiency.

1. Ability to see hierarchy with one click and no open windows:

2. Ability to see Custom Icons, instead of All Default Blue Folders:

Now why didn't I think of that? =p

Thanks for the heads up. Whenever I decide to move to the GM, if I don't use the 2D dock, I'll remember that.

Tuqqer, I wholeheartedly agree with you. Although the icon's reflections look great with a clear dock and a dark background.

If anyone wants the 3D Dock on the Side in the GM you can just replace the Package Contents with the Dock Contents from 9a559. It works.

Ive never posted here, but I was looking around the net at dock mods and came across your post. Im not a big pirate fan, but thought the map and Xs would be cool so I went ahead and made one up.

If anyone wants the files, I can zip it up and upload to mediashare.
