I somehow removed my Downloads folder from the Dock. When I dragged the Download folder back down to the dock next to the trash can, it changes into a stack of papers rather than the blue folder. What on earth am I doing wrong???

stacks show whats in the folder, not the actual folder
so say you have a pdf in your downloads folder, the dock stack will show a pdf. It is kinda stupid. I have many dmg's in my download folder, and it is ugly having a dmg sitting in my dock.
However, someone has come up with a creative "fix" for this:
