ClearDock from unsanity is what I'm using to get the effect and I've applied a slight blue colouring to the dock background.

Thanks. Had that and didn't know you could alter it.

What program are you guys using to change the drive icons in 9A559 ? I tried copy and pasting .icns and .jpg and the they are not showing up. I have a feeling there is some setting I am missing.

Hmm... Copying and pasting .icns files should work in Leopard, and that's how it's been done on Mac OS since the very first system software. Unfortunately, apps like Pixadex and CandyBar haven't been updated to work with Leopard yet.

Thanks. There was something wrong with the icon files I was trying to paste. I had to resave them as icon files. Very strange.

Sorry for the noob question, but how do you customize Adium to display contacts like that? That's dead sexy.

oh and also, how is iTunes integrated into the desktop (look at some pics back). Thanks all!

It's all good dude. Just download the stuff below and install. After installing it should bring you to the Appearance preference pane where you can apply the enhancements.

Service Icons - pss-2

Status Icons - iBubbles Status Icons

Color Theme - simpledesktop

List Layout - Minimal

Window Style - Borderless Window

Opacity: 5%

Good luck!

    • Call of Duty: Vanguard, EA Sports FC 26, and more come to Xbox Game Pass

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Call of Duty: Vanguard, EA Sports FC 26, and more come to Xbox Game Pass by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft is in the process of making some big changes to Xbox Game Studios right now, which might include studio shutdowns, but Game Pass drops aren't pausing for that. The second wave of June was just announced, unveiling another Call of Duty addition, the latest soccer game from EA, an indie road trip hit from last year, and more. While Microsoft said it won't put Call of Duty titles on Game Pass on the day of launch anymore, older titles keep landing, with the latest one being 2021's Call of Duty: Vanguard. Here are all the games that were announced today for Xbox Game Pass, their platforms, and arrival dates: Junkster (Cloud, XBOX Series X|S, Handheld, and PC) – June 16 Call of Duty: Vanguard (Cloud, Console, and PC) – June 17 EA Sports FC 26 (Cloud, Console, and PC) – June 18 Abyssus (Cloud, Xbox Series X|S, and PC) – June 25 RV There Yet? (Cloud, Xbox Series X|S, and PC) – June 30 Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 (Cloud, Console, and PC) – July 2 Winds of Arcana: Ruination (Cloud, Console, Handheld, and PC) – July 6 From the bunch, Junkster is the sole day-one drop into Game Pass libraries of this selection. As new games arrive, eight will be leaving the Game Pass programs on June 30. Here's the full list of leaving titles: Mecha Break (Cloud, Console, and PC) Payday 2 (Console) Rise of Tomb Raider (Cloud, Console, and PC) Tomb Raider (Cloud, Console, and PC) Slay the Spire (Cloud, Console, and PC) Ultimate Chicken Horse (Cloud, Console, and PC) Volcano Princess (Cloud, Console, and PC) Unpacking (Cloud, Console, and PC) With June drops finished, Microsoft should have a new Game Pass announcement in about two weeks to reveal the first wave of games coming to subscribers in July. Already confirmed games for the month include the Halo: Campaign Evolved remake, Corsair Cove, SpeedRunners 2: King of Speed, and Mistfall Hunter.
