Poll-Reflective Dock Name

Here's a Poll for the reflective icon dock being developed.

Here's the most popular names I've compiled from the thread!

#493378

AquaDock is already taken--as a ResHacked Y'z Dock because Y'z Dock was stopped by apple. But now they don't even stop the better ones!

Go BananaDock!

#493381

MirrorDock or BannanaDock... hmm... difficult to decide... :slant:

#493429

without a doubt; banana dock.

#493430

Since there's not Obiwan Kenobi, I will go for Banana Dock o/

#493431

Bah. This poll is rigged!

Inspired by Dream_Teams post, why not call it obiDock....

...On second thoughts, that's a bit silly, :/

#493435

ahem..i didnt make this poll.... i am the developer of the dock. A mod please close this so i can make the official poll. Thank you.

#493437

I still haven't figured out why lots of people like glowdock. As you said, it doesn't glow, so why name it glowdock the best idea that i could think of that could be abbreviated to gdock is glassDock. Or better yet why don't you ditch the whole concept name of dock and launcher , and name it somethings, thats Totally OUT OF THE BOX.

#493440

A mod please close this so i can make the official poll. Thank you.

Uh why should we start again, we already have vote casts !

Lets call this dock "Motorcycle" :P

#493454

ahem..i didnt make this poll.... i am the developer of the dock. A mod please close this so i can make the official poll. Thank you.

Yes, mod close this thread please.

#493482

It's too late, decision has been taken :D

Bannana Dock, with the unusual number of n's is clearly the winner. Now it's time to develop a yellow skin :D

why call a dock "Dock" anyway, isn't that extremely boring?

#493487

AquaDock or BannanaDock (or even What'sUpDoc)

YES!! :D

WhatsUpDock :cool:

#493497

Banana Dock. Because I don't like bananas, but it still sounds awesome.

#493509

i enjoy banana's...and even though i originally voted glowdock...bananadock is pretty cool...i admit!

#493546

after the jokes, I've just realized that maybe it should actually be called just Banana !

  • free advertisement - everyone will talk about the dock-with-a-strange-name
  • easy to identify - a banana stands out, is a recognizable logo, it's usually unrelated to software (think about how the mozilla programs use animals - nothing to do with the programs or their features, but still they work)
  • can you resist, when you get the change to have different "banana skins" ? :D

#493558

- easy to remember : will you forget something called BananaDock ? No. But something called iReflectLauncher, you'll certainely will.

#493575

  • and then comes another reflective dock and it's called Reflective, Reflection, or Reflex or any other boring variation, and people stop identifying your product and instead of a bright advertisement, you get white noise.
  • you can say "We called this dock Banana because it makes no sense. It's such a good product that it could have any name"

I offer to create the website for free if it's called Banana Dock (with a space, and any amount of n's, the more the better) and maybe even if it's called BananaDock (a little bit less original, imho). Andreas and Phil know I deliever :P

#493577

what dock you talking about ?

#493582

don't go off-topic in this really important thread :mad: the dock-that-is-not-yet. Search in this section of the forum and you'll find. Here we discuss names, but just for fun, nothing official :P

#493584

sigh..if you want a banana dock, then banana dock it will be. Mod please close this thread.

HOWEVER i have not permanently decided on banana dock.. one it has nothing to do with the project. and two its kinda stupid. but it will rest until the dock is done. When the dock is finished i will create and official poll.

#493595

ehm, please don't take this thread seriously, as if we were deciding anything. It wasn't started in that direction, and we are just joking about names at this point, and you should have realized it.

Noone would ever force a name on the developers: it's your creature and you decide what to do with it!

still, it's quite fun to come up with random names and see how you can support them with arguments :D

edit: I still can't resist to add this: thank god that the Firefox project had nothing to do with its name, with fire, foxes, or red pandas. Browsing the internet would be a real mess otherwise! :D

#493599

Was/Isn't there already an AquaDock or at least I had one year's ago?

I think that's how I ended up here in the first place.;)

#493616

banana dock for the win

#493617

Your right there is an aqua dock, however i have never tried it considering it does not work on windows vista.

whoever created this poll should remove it.. its unofficial and completely useless to me and to anyone who will be using this dock, because people will not be voting on this dock. dreadnaut is completely right, the naming of the dock is my decision, if you dont like it to bad, go create your own dock an call it banana dock.

@dreadnaut

your right, firefox? lol? that would be an intresting program if it wasnt a web browser, probably a game like star fox except you should fire. lol :)

#493619

the naming of the dock is my decision

You're right but this thread is really here just for fun :D

/me wants a BananaFinder

(maybe I should start one, full treeview file browsing rocks when it comes to video management and all)

AquaDock was just a reshacked YzDock (wich ruled)
