Desktop Thread

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

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

You can find CandyBar here: pa nic.com/candybar/

Greetings

@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

@Raldo: That's sweet! What are you currently downloading with my favourite Torrent Client?

@creative_: Nice Dock

@sergiales: Attachments are fixed!

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

puttabong how did you manage to get the transparent bar?

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.

Hey Puttabong whats the Leo folder on your desktop?

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?

Oops! don't worry, I didn't notice that all of you are linking to other sites.
Mine:
As I like Vista's Aurora Wallpaper, I decided to modify it a bit, hope you like.

@ roisoft: what theme are you using for the dock?

@ puttabong: bitrocket rox! Also in mac, i look for gpl applications.
Anyway, this is a very nice site, but add an emoticon theme us this (adium xtras.com/index.php?a=xtras&xtra_id=4333)
Ah, how have you modified trasparence of menubar? I can only modify grey tone :sisi:

Glad to see that Candybar was updated... Last time I looked, it was not yet updated for Leopard. Its a great app.

Broke it trying to get my wireless working. USB kext errors on me.

Sexy collection! It's going well so far, now If I could get my Dock Icons to be b/w...this would be sick. I think i saw a few sets on deviantart.

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

@ Bonkey.

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

A great pack of the stack icons...

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

mac update.com/info.php/id/26658/3d-folder-icons
mac update.com/info.php/id/26492/leopaqua

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:

mac update.com/info.php/id/24764/liteicon

Here's mine. Pretty plain, but everything works 100%

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

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

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

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

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 ...

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 ...

[cite] Ludvig:Here is mine: desktop (data.fusk bugg.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.

[cite] 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 (data.fusk bugg.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".
