Hey woman! Nice dock! How did you get the overlay effect in YZ's? I though it was only available for OD...

BTW here's mine...

Haha—I'm amused. I am a woman, but eh—whatever works. I'm used to being addressed as a guy on forums, esp. computer-related ones. I was once an admin on a DC hub, and the other admins had no idea that I wasn't a guy...

But I digress. Anyway, it's not actually an overlay, per se. I just took the pngs I had in the dock already and layered the grass dock foreground and background (which I got by converting the original Mac .rsrc files from the IHeartNY Dock Lawn distribution, as the XP versions only go up to 48x48) onto each one in Photoshop and then saved copies. To make the background I messed around a bit with resizing pieces of grass icon until I got a dock background that stretched well and still looked grassy. I decided to do the dock lawn when I found this great stock photo that's like a more detailed, more sinister version of Microsoft's "Bliss" wallpaper—as you can see, the dock blends in quite well.

here's my dock

in order left to right are

start {start menu docklet}, my comp, task manager, seperator, network, messenger {trillian}, internet explorer, firefox, thunderbird, photoshop, winamp, trash can {recycle bin}, clock, macromedia{kkmenu}, seperator, task bar

i've used the Tiger {Mac OSX v1.4} background

one question i have is how can i make the image for the macromedia folder appear. i set the image but it just doesn't show even though its set in the ini file

Hey, has it not been said enough? no images posted inline should be larger than 500 pixels. Respect that.

bunkka, you can take a screenshot on a mac by just pressing shift+apple+3... it will make a pdf screenshot on the desktop, open it in preview, and export as whatever you want

oh ya i know how to take screenshots, its just when i use grab and make selections of parts of my desktop i want, i wish the grab icon wasn't in the dock. but i doubt we can get around it.
