hehe, that thing on my last dock about most superior was meant as a joke only...at the end of that sentence there is an * and a few lines below there is another * with a little bit of info. I thought some folks would get it but most people see something that pees them off and they don't continue to read they just go flame...

sure, i'd be happy to have my google earth icon included in your pack as long as you give credit for it
Mar 9, 2008 10:03 PM
thnx for the comment, john that windows icon you referred to is one of Dario's, here's the link: http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=3320&libid=39

oh, the previous is for tiles alone. if you try to do this with a zoomer dock you have to put this somewhere in the zoomer ini [Tile] Image = tileblank.png ResizeIconByPercent = 80 OffsetIconByPercentX = 50 OffsetIconByPercentY = 50 and make sure you have a blank tile.png in the folder for it to reference. Otherwise, you'll get no changes. If you are confused, open one of my zoomers and check the ini
Mar 5, 2008 4:46 PM
you want to put these lines in the tile ini ResizeIconByPercent = 70; OffsetIconByPercentX = 50; OffsetIconByPercentY = 50; The first line will resize your icons lower the number, smaller the icon. The next two lines are the up and down or left and right movement tags. I think X = left/right where below 50 is left and above 50 is right. Y = up/down where below is down and above is up. That may be backward though, don't hold me to it. Play with them to see the actual result.

I have not looked into finding a Sleep command. Would that be the same as Hibernate?

;) Just trying to keep you out of trouble mate. Thanks for your support and I hope to see more of your work.

just a little random fact for a random moment for a random bored day, the girl in my cool background (I think it's cool i don't really care what you say unless you're one of my favorite dock artists and say it's worth absolute crap) She's Ayane from the game Dead Or Alive (I have 2, they're up to like 4 now on the 360 and there are rumors going around for some PS3 super high def version.. gives me chills.) and she's the best ninja..EVER. She's also in Ninja Gaiden. idk whether or not I like her appearance in which game beccause they're the same character, they just changed the facial features to match the other players in whatever game. and I'm still bored o I'm going to get some coffee.

talking to myself... nothing to do.... yeah. most pointless comment on the face of the earth award goes to......

[quote]So far I've asked TSAelement and now I'm asking you since I think you two are personally the best Leopard dock people. Is it even possible to add a reflective surface to the dock it self? it makes me wonder how the heck Apple did it.... [/quote]

Their dock is coded differently. It's built into the dock itself to add the reflect. OD developer could probably do it (and may be working on it)
Jan 5, 2008 3:25 AM
Yeah. I messed with it and totally messed it up. I just redownloaded it. You can barely notice it it when you have icons. I noticed it when I was moving stuff around. what's weird is that your image size is really large, so you would think OD wouldn't have to stretch anything.
Jan 4, 2008 6:58 PM
That is associated with the "LeftWidth" setting in the .ini file. The image that I made has a static size. To deal with this OD will stretch the image so that it covers (or in this case sits under) your dock icons. The amount of pixels specified by the left and right widths is how much of the image that isn't stretched.

If you feel like it you change the settings in the .ini file to whatever you want to best hide the square.
Jan 3, 2008 2:11 AM
Thanks guys. I just noticed something really weird.. It's like that on both of your leopard docks. towards the left, there's like a square in the s-curve. it's not like that in your gif... what the heck is OD doing??! You can barely notice it but it's on TSAElements's screen shots of his leopard docks.
Jan 2, 2008 10:38 PM
I agree with TSA. I have modified reflected versions of all of my icons saved on my computer. I have a Photoshop template, as does TSA.
Jan 2, 2008 10:02 PM
I left this reply on the my leopard dock comment page. But its getting messy there. So here is what I said, in response to your icon reflection question:

No it isn't possible.. At least not yet (as far as I know, but I'm not a programmer). I would imagine that someone will eventually write some type of plugin/docklet or something to do it. But as of now I think Apple used a revamped version of the "Cover Flow" effect that was first implemented in iTunes. There is a javascript effect out there that emulates it pretty well called Reflex. But the effect of course is copyrighted by Apple so I'm sure if anyone does it they will have to answer to Apple.
