Nice Diafragma. Missed it earlier (dialup things slide away before I can finish loading a page) but was answering a question which led me to here. All things work out, huh?
Thanks for the tip on the sep png. I'd been puzzling other shots and was almost that close to maybe trying something like that.

Sea Hourse, I use PSP8. The Sep Png is a blank .png 196x196 in size. I copied it to another folder and opened it with psp. Then I opened another .png which was 128x128 but has tranparency. I copied that one and pasted onto the sep png as another layer, then moved it til it was centered as I wanted it. Saved that. I know have a 196x196 png with a 128x128 pic in the middle.

With OD free (add I'm guessing the same with +) doesn't matter if the png you use as an icon on the dock is 92 or 128 or 256, if they are solid squares, they will show as the same size on the dock. It's just the 256 looks better magnified to 192 than the 92 does.

The sep png is like a picture frame. If put a 5x8 photo in a standing frame with a 1/4" border, the picture will sit closer to the table than a 5x8 photo in a frame with a 2" border.

The icons shown in the screen shot were made with the shadows.




Sorry I babble on your thread, Diafragma...too much caffeine today.

Yep, the link in #6 takes you to Office in Vitro not Cryo64 in Vitro.

I'm fascinated by this! Color-changing to match walls and themes! OD+ now allowing placement anywhere on the DT! Fun to run multiple instances of this and stack 'em up like bookshelves! Diafragma, thank you!

LV13: First install Object Dock ("plus" version is best for this!)
Then D/L this, and unzip it 'til you get down to the basic file(usually just unzip once, sometimes twice)
Leave the resulting file alone for a sec and open My Computer > C > Program Files > Stardock > Object Dock > backgrounds.
Then you'll have two open windows on yr DT: 1.)backgrounds, and 2.)the unzipped folder you peeled first.
Right-click>drag>copy the new folder into "backgrounds".
yr done.
May have to restart OD to get the new stuff to appear when you configure Obj Dock.
Right-click on a dock on the desktop, that'll take you to the config box. Play around.
The only other thing is when you D/L icons for your docks, instead of putting them in "backgrounds" you want to put them in "Images"
WARNING! Once you figure it out, you'll find stuff like this and won't be able to stop.
Diafragma: Sorry to hijack this Took me years, literally, to get this. Thought I'd pass it on.

If you have an ico file when saving it as a png file using photshop it will include the transparancies as well and you wont see the black edges in the new converted file. If you are using the blank png file attached make sure the icons you using are saved as pngs first and then use them with my blank file to change the png size.. I hope this helps but let me know if you have questions

Peter,
This is absolutely stunning. Can it only be used horizontally? Or am I missing something. When you have time e-mail me because my computer crashed and I lost your address.

Hi Diafragma. I love this theme...I am new to objectdock (just dropped aqua dock)...I would really appreciate it if you could explain how to apply these themes. If you'd like to e-mail me rather than posting, you can e-mail [email protected].

Thanks so much!
