Very nice!
Can you share the secrets of what appear to be some neat little apps you have used in the "new" picture: the extra dock and weather pop for example?

www.konfabulator.com
there is a widget for
only finder
battery power meter, weather clock, calendar, and very small text accross the bottom is a cpu monitor.
there is no second dock.. i simply don't display my doesktop icon for mac hd, and renamed my folders with spaces (of varying numbers) and moved them down there, with custom icons.
the im client is fire with a transparent window...

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwww ... I really love those dock icons on the old one! Oh and BTW, there's an angel in the background that's rather distracting ... it makes it hard to concentrate on the delicious icons ...
Here's my current theme ... call me a loyalist ... at least I had the guts to make it a green one!
Ta-dahhhhhhhhh!

i used candybar to change those and got the icon set at www.theiconfactory.com

yours looks nice, nice and clean, with a huge freaking dock! /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Is there away to create a theme for OSX with Developer tools?? and edit the dock and stuff. I'm making OSX look like a Lunix GUI.

[h00ligan]

yes, goto versiontracker and download themechanger. then get some kind of dock replacement and kil the existing dock. As far as removing the menu bar altogether, not that i know of.

I got carried away with the apps in the dock ... I might consider eliminating the MS ones though ... I never use 'em anyways!

I don't necessarily want (or need) to replace my dock, just make the background transparent. What is the best way to do this? With a shareware app like Transparentdock?
I'm not sure I'm willing to pay for a trivial feature like this, but I can't find another solution. What is the easiest, most bug-free solution?

[d00d]

I use ClearDock (an APE plugin). It's customizable, non-permanent, and free!

[rockinphotog]

Thanks, d00d. After a frustrating half hour of trying to get cleardock to work, I finally figured out that I needed to install "Application Enhancer" first. Their "Read Me" and their online troubleshooting tips don't mention anything about it. They only suggest to delete system preferences cache. You would think that other dummies would have had the same problem before.
Now I see that "Application Enhancer" is listed under it's requirements at versiontracker. I wish I would have noticed that earlier. /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

(edit: Oh yeah. The fully transparent dock is quite nice, BTW. ) /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
