what is cool about this app is that the icon doesn't get a name so no matter how you have it the icon will always be in front

Field Note #1 @naquaada 2008-05-22

There's another method: Place the stacks icon into the folder you want it and rename it f.e ' Documents ', so with a space as first and last char. If the files are sorted by name in the Stack then this icon will always apper first

Field Note #2 @naquaada 2008-05-23

I use semi-transparent Stacks, you can download them here (optica-optima.blog spot.com/search/label/DRAWERSicon). And here's the Background ↗ pic.

Field Note #3 @WinLinMac01 2008-05-23

I like it very much too. I especially like how I can keep everything neat and tidy on the dock. Easily accessible. =)
