The Status Of Themedock....

As many of you know, Fletch and I launched our own site, ThemeDock, about 2 or 3 months ago. Also, as many of you know, it has been down for the latter half of that time. This has been because of numerous reasons- an increase in school workload, my new role in the finder project, etc, etc. I do have the time to do the basic upkeep of the site, but I am finding that I have less time to create themes.

This is where you all come in- I need your help to decide what to do. Running the site and releasing the occasional theme is well within my reach, but in order to keep the site fairly current, I would need you to submit any creations you might have- PNG icons, dock themes, Docklets (once Mr. Y releases the SDK), and dock tutorials. I hope you understand were I am coming from on this...I would really hate to take the site down. I made my reputation in this community by theming the dock apps, and, although it may seem that I have abandoned it, I still enjoy theming, and enjoy providing users with a more 'flavorful' option for their docks. I am sure Fletch feels the same way, as is evidenced by his painstaking re-creation of the OS X dock background (PJ series) and his other quality themes.

Please offer us your input and suggestions. You guys are the reason we do any of this, and we want to hear what you have to say.

I'm making 2 complete dock themes right now, one of 50's moviestars and a punkrock theme. Don't expect them too soon, I'm really busy with lots of stuff, but I guess I'll finish them before april. I have not too many hosting resources so It would be nice if you guys would pu them up when they're finished and if they are ok with your standards. So...keep it up!

And promote the hell out of your site of course

Is a James Dean icon available yet? That would be really, really keen.

I can host some themes on my site, and make references to them every single day, of course.

Definitly keep your site up, its the only one of its kind. Also let other people (whos themes you like) put their stuff on too, that way new content can be added with no work from you. I love your themes by the way, PJ and Tiki have been my themes since they came out. If you need a place to store themes, you can use my server.

hey, Clockwise!

James is in the works.... I'll do the moviestars theme this weekend. Punk rock will have to wait another week. Work is crazy.

cya!
