It's been quite a week for downloads: OD .85, Y'z Dock .005, DirectX 9 and WMP 9/XP Plus! MCE coming tomorrow.
One download I have been eagerly anticipating is Stardock's IconFX. I have an alpha version now, and I like it a lot. It's still to alpha presently to use on a regular basis. Just imagine your desktop icons behaving similarly to your dock icons- amazing stuff.
The next release of HoverDesk will do that also using either icons or transparent PNGs...and much more too so stay tuned 
I'm beta testing it at the present time and let me tell you it is going to be one sweet customization tool 
Hey Marvilla, can you post a screenshot of this new HoverDesk gem? Hmmmm..

This is the default theme Thibaud has created using a wallpaper by Dangeruss and my Slate icons set. Thibaud still says he has a lot of work on this release before it goes public...but so far IMO it's awesome and I love it!
The desktop icons (you can use either icons or PNG there) are set to 80 % transparency in their inactive state. When you 'hover' over them they go to their normal opacity and zoom, and you can also set them to spin and move if you want.
click on the thumbnail to see the actual size...
Yep, that's similar to what IconFX does. I can't wait for these gems to become finalized.
