Title explains it. Picture, or just write it out. Left to right, right to left, whatever :Cool:

Mine is pretty boring, I will just put up a screenshot. :)

Can't wait to see others!

Keeping it kind of simple for the time being I guess. Plan on adding CS4 soon. Got rid of iPhoto and iTunes because I loathe them so...

With Quicksilver, I really don't need to keep much in my dock.

By the way folks, if you press +Shift+4+Space Bar and click on the dock, you get a dockshot like mine.

I don't like cluttering it with too many icons!

Just like apple, beauty with simplicity!

Ill edit this post later.... but how do you take a pic of your doc?

Well, you will need a certain widget. As you probably know, a widget is a small little thing that does certain things. Widgets are found in your dashboard, which can be accessed by the small icon on your dock.


Here is the widget I use:

Apple - Downloads - Dashboard Widgets - Screenshot Plus

Using it is pretty straight forward, and having a widget like that comes in handy alot! :)

Actually, OS X has a screengrab utility built right in.

+Shift+3 - Whole Screen
+Shift+4 - Size certain area
+Shift+4+Space Bar - Selected application (Including the dock!)

Do I have to say more? :)

Nope. I did for ya! :p

By the way, Derek, that key combination is rather tricky. I made it work by using my thumb on both the  and the shift key at the same time. But it's a neat trick.
