BoXXi needs some ObjectDock advice....
(again) :)
Thursday, April 8, 2010 by BoXXi | Discussion: Docks
Hi Guys.... I need to know if the design I have come up with will work as a dock background. Also, can I include the icons (when they are finished) and upload them as an entire theme? Or do I have to upload the dock and the icons seperately?
I don't use ObjectDock (I don't even have it installed), So any advice about formats used and the best way to upload will be greatly appreciated. The image should be below......... (it's to match my "En-Gauge" skins that I've been making)

I would say YES this dock will work as you Don't have any lines that curve or an image that would be hard for OD to use.
as for the Icons uploaded with the theme I don't think so but just try and see if not link to the icon and link to the dock on each other
as for the dock and Icons they look grate... GOOD JOB HERE
can't wait to try this out
EDIT
P.S. If you need anyone to test this out i can..

Looks like it would work fine, Bryan. But I would advise installing OD to test it out. The free version would be fine to test it out

Looks very nice! The Giz will probably come along shortly and answer for certain on the best process I would think..

You can package the icons with the dock but you'd need to use the dockzip format. I don't know if OD 2.0 supports that or not. And I know that a lot of folks don't like the dockzip format anyway. I'd just zip the icons up with you dock in a folder named Icons and let people know they are in the file so they can use them if they want.
