How do you enjoy the dock on the left hand side like that? I notice in all your screens they are like that, is there a certain reason why?

You mean on the right hand side? And yes, I prefer it like that because I like having a stationery Trash icon. I've also turned off magnification, so the Dock, which is relatively stationery and near the edges, is more in accordance with Fitt's law.

I think mopper gave you the wallpaper link as far as the rest goes.

The Finder icon is from Iconbase (payware) - check your PM.

Globe Icon is from Eugen Buzuk

Hard Drive icon is a mod by myself.

Email icon found on deviantart

Adium icon is iChat3 icon found on adium extras

The dock is from here http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16783684 but I added my own indicators and divider. Let me know if you want them and I will post them.

Can I get the Hard drive icon, finder icon, email icon and your customized dock please? thanks :D

I don't think I can release the Hard Drive icon since it was modded by me. I just took the EON series and added a logo to it.

Finder Icon is from the Angular set from Iconbase (payware)

Email Icon is from here http://psychopulse.deviantart.com/art/e-ma...eopard-71123981

Customized Dock: New Dock from macthemes2.net and these indicators http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BZQXOBCG

Check your PM too....

Thanks alot. I followed the readme file to replace the indicators to Dock.app but they do not show up. Do you happen to have a theme I can use in CandyBar or PimpMyDock with these built in indicators?

Now that 10.5.2 is out, I've changed my setup a bit... Giving the opaque menu bar a try, I kind of like it a little better, the text is much smoother since it's anti-aliased. Not sure if I'll get used to having links to the internal and external hard drives in the Dock, but having them as nested folders makes things a bit quicker to access.

What you need to do it apply your favorite theme in CandyBar once you have it applied drag the png dividers and what not into candybar dropping them on the icon you want to replace in the divider. Hit apply and you are DONE!

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By Kravex · Posted

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
