Wish people would read the forum rules about posting pictures and to what size to post pictures at ....

800x600 MAX

Agree 100%! It's very annoying.

Why don't the moderators ever change or delete those images?

Looks great on my imac, get over it. I thought the poster requesting the image would like the bigger version.

You could have just posted the link, and or PMed the person. However, I also do like the image. Just slightly annoying cause it makes everything off kilter. >_<"

[dead image link removed]

Ok, I've been a member here for a few years, but I am only now getting around to customizing my desktop. Can anyone please help me identify:

1) The dock/icon set. Is the dock appearance/active application indicator accomplished solely with Candybar, or is there something else at work? And what is that icon set?

2) I have the iStat Pro widget already, but I like the appearance of iStat in the menu bar. Is it worth the purchase over the free widget?

3) What is the name of the clock/weather app on the desktop?

Sorry for the barrage of newbie questions. Many thanks!

1) The icon set is part of CandyBar. The indicators you can modify by going to:

Macintosh HD: System: Libary: Core Services: right click on Dock.App and choose Show Package Contents: Contents: Resources: find the indicator files. I change mine up every month- including the color of the Dock, which you find the scurve image files. My orange Dock. I edited both the indicator lights and the scurve image files with ColorSync. It takes a bit of practice to get it right. As for those custom lights, I think CandyBar might still be the program to edit these, but I'm not sure. I like what Apple already has to offer for the dock lights.


2) The widget is good. I had the menubar, but it got increasingly cluttered. I switched to the widget on Dashboard

3) GeekTool. GeekTool is a load of fun if you're a bash (*cough* Terminal) user. There are a ton of sites through one Google search to find GeekTool commands. I turned mine off for next month (you'll guys will recognize this next month's wallpaper!!!) as it ruined the background.
