[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1360128, member: 38864"] Sorry… we forgot to address your questions. Ideally, you should use CandyBar. To use the containers, just double-click them to load them up in CandyBar. CB will add them to its library of icons and dock graphics. When you select Huddy_Dock from the list, you'll get a preview in the bottom right pane. If you want to keep it, click on the [I]Use this Dock[/I] button. Then up top, select [I]Apply Dock[/I]. You'll enter your admin password, then be prompted to relaunch the Dock. If you change your mind, click on [I]Restore Dock[/I] up top. I was about to elaborate on how to manually replace the graphics with the provided PNG graphics in the Resources folder, but after double checking on this, I simply can't advise it. They would have to be renamed to match the corresponding files inside Dock.app, and there aren't the variety of sizes of the icons that are supposed to be there. I don't know why the designer included them… probably so others can use them and modify to make variations, but anyway, I really can't recommend trying it. I did use CandyBar to test out that option myself, and it works. Just stick with the iContainers and ignore the PNG graphics. Your call on how to proceed here. I understand the others have reservations with it, but I respectfully disagree with them. [/QUOTE]
