Fences as a Dock
Tuesday, March 3, 2009 by jeff graper | Discussion: Fences
If you want to make a dock without running another app, just make a fence at the bottom of the screen. Fill it with your favorite dock icon/shortcuts and hide the windows taskbar. You can use "standalone stack" to make fly outs and exclude the dock from autohide. Nice extra feature for this program.

I agree with the OP and voidcore. I used to run OD but found it easier and less overhead intensive to just make a fence for my Dock Icons and cut OD for Fences, which I like better.

Till now I used ubericon for icon effects. It gives effects even with explorer icons. Will sure check out 'standalone stack' if its better.

odd, I never found OD+ to be resource intensive. I use Fences as a 'warehouse'...OD doesn't even bump my CPU/RAM.

Interesting, and creative....but why not get OD+? It'd give you many more possibilities...and you could also keep Fences as well...which, at this point doesn't support any skinning.
