I'm wondering if you can tell me where to get the icons in your dock. I really like them all :)

Most of them I have found on macthemes2.net or from Jonas Rask. The folders are from the Aquave Project. The finder icon is from a application called Process.

Hmm, could it be the font size on your menu bar? I've downloaded your screenshot and full-screened it through Quick Look. Moving my mouse to the top of the screen overlays my menu bar over the picture, and your menu bar is clearly smaller than mine. Something I've noticed is that the text in your menu bar is smaller?

Is this just an error of the picture?

Odd, I don't know. This is a fresh install of Leopard (Thanks to the POS software called Parallels). The only thing I really changed was the color settings in which I use the TV gamma instead of the default settings which appear washed out to me.

bump??
Sorry I suck at returning PMs - I uploaded it here for you. I think that is the one you requested.

My menu bar is the same size - nothing changed about it that I know of.

My dock is a little larger than what Apple sets it to (standard) size. As far as decrease in the work area it isn't that much of a difference on m 17" MBP. Plus the icons are sexy and I hate not being able to see the details of them on the smaller dock.

Wallpaper can be found here

The dock is actually called PDock (you can find it on deviantart) I then took the separators from my Niqu Maxified Dock and put them with it.

Hope that helps :D

and quite a nice job you did, farewell, nice job indeed. :)

:o New dock? Link?

And regarding that trash icon, maybe it's just me, but the two vertical white lines.. one of them is always black and one is always white. They alternate as I change the size of the dock and it takes a specific dock size to make them both white at the same time. Does that happen to you too?

Is that Adium or iChat? If it's Adium, is that dock icon iBubble 3? Yours seems to be shaded nicer and looks better than what I'm using

And regarding Quillz, he has officially switched to Windows Vista :(

Not quite... I did on my MacBook, but I was having more difficulty on my iMac due to my three external all being formatted as HFS Plus. So I actually deleted the partition on my iMac and am running OS X exclusively. But Vista gives me better battery life on my MacBook.

    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely

      By PeterTHX · Posted

      What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By rseiler · Posted

      If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
