puttabong how did you manage to get the transparent bar?

[Puttabong]

@DoiX:
I don't think that I modified it, you mean the menu bar, right?
I think it's slightly transparent by default.

[jshanh]

Mine is Transparent by default too.?
Also, how did Puttabong change his little blue dots that represent what apps are open in the dock to nice big white arrows?
I like that.

[Puttabong]

Hey jshanh,

I used a very nice application called CandyBar to change it, and this amazing dock made by Max Rudberg:

You can find CandyBar here: http://www.panic.com/candybar/

Greetings :)

[jshanh]

Hey, looks great, and thnx!

[LeeAMDMAC]

Hey Puttabong whats the Leo folder on your desktop?

[Sergiales]

Hi!, I'm trying to upload mine but forum gives me this msg:

Some problems were encountered
An error occured while creating a new attachment folder. Check your upload path permissions

What's wrong?

[Puttabong]

@Sergiales: I'm going to fix it very soon, pretty busy at the moment. Just upload to tickload.com until then, for example.
@LeeAMDMAC: That's the Harddrive I installed Leopard to :)

[Sergiales]

Oops! don't worry, I didn't notice that all of you are linking to other sites.

As I like Vista's Aurora Wallpaper, I decided to modify it a bit, hope you like.

[bonkey]

Roisoft. how did you fix your "Downloads" and "Documents" icon in the dock?

[ShadeZeRO]

@ Bonkey.

Get CandyBar application. Then use the "Black & Grey Icons collection" that riosoft posted.

[roisoft]

The stacks icons? with "stacks in da place" :D

[roisoft]

We should make a link list where to get Leopard-sized icons.

I used the leopaqua set, they're looking like Leopard icons abut are a bit more colorful. To change the default icons use this tool:

Just finished editing the About this Mac strings window. Figured I'd throw it up.

[littleking]

Ey, nice desktops!! Hehe.. I'll post mine after my question.
How did you change your icons? IM trying to change mine, but it would'nt display. I tried copy and pasting it the drives but, no luck.
Anybody can help so i can paste my desktop here..
hehe
Thanks in advance!

[creative_]

Try CandyBar very good tool

[naquaada]

You can use LiteIcon instead of CandyBar, it's free (look on macupdate)

[Puttabong]

CandyBar is indeed one of the must-need Applications for me, though!
It's gorgeous.

[megaargon1]

Too bad CandyBar is not opensource where it is free to download and protected by GNU.

[crawle]

Hey guys,
how can I get something like CPU load and Network Up- and Downspeed upon my bar? (where the watch is etc.)
I saw it on many desktop pictures ...

[crawle]

Great! Thanks PB!

[Xxp/TuX]

Ok guys:here is mine...It is not too nice yet because I created it!.And It will be there as a reminder that I must create the skeleton too, lol :D ...

[Ludvig]

Here is mine: desktop (http://data.fuskbugg.se/skalman01/------------Picture%201.png).

[Ianxxx]

Ludvig:Here is mine: desktop (http://data.fuskbugg.se/skalman01/------------Picture%201.png).

My god those disk drives r huge, but I am interested in what you used to show disk size etc.

[Ludvig]

Ianxxx:My god those disk drives r huge, but I am interested in what you used to show disk size etc.
Right-click on desktop and choose "Show view options". Then this (http://data.fuskbugg.se/skalman01/--------------Picture%201.png) box will appear. Just drag the "Icon size" slider to change the size of your icons. If you want disk information, check "Show info item".

[Ianxxx]

Thanks

[WinLinMac01]

thanks as well, neat, and sleek-looking enlarged icons. =)

if you don't know how to do something or want the skin for something let me know :]

[laxattack]

hey can anyone tell me where to get the circular dock indicators?

[Shiftedx]

Hey Laxattack here's a link to the dock in my screenshot using the circle indicators.

http://macthemes2.net/2008/02/26/float-dock-released/

you need to have candybar to apply the theme.

Good luck :]

[laxattack]

thank you!
