Hello dear friends :loveit:

 

:info: Introduction :ar:

 

As you all know, there are several programs called 'Docks' available over the Win custamizing sites which will make your XP background (desktop) look like Mac OSX :wink:
In the race, there are two major competitors giving different eras of funtanality in dock.
The two docks from them are called as
Rocket Dock (by Punk! Software)
and
Object Dock (by Stardock)

 

and among this competitors, There are another type of people who design fantastic cloths for these dock called 'Skins'
(aknowledgment- dlb and Zak for the skins in RD )

 

So this thread is for that people who wish to create marvellous skins for these docks :oui:

 

Designers, :xeyes:
You can tell us about your newly made Dock skin in here and you also can get the feed back, appreciations depriciations for your skins too. :biggrin:

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

As a start to the thread, this is about my latest designs for these docks (Object Dock and Rocket Dock)

These dock skins are called 'Vista Look Skins' since I used the four colors of the Vista logo in these Skins :wink:

As for the skin, these two docks use different formats (templates)
So I have designed my four skins according to the Object Dock Skin format since it does not rotate the Skin as the Rocket Dock does in Mobydock formatted Skins :smile:
But these can also be used with Rocket Dock since it also supports this format. :cool2:

 

Edit:* :info: Rocket Dock Supports many Skin formats :oui: (Just forrlow down and read the post by Skunkie :smile:

The four Skins are called,  http://img236.imageshack.us/img236/2698/vistayellowsn2.png
1. Vista Blue
2. Vista Yellow
3. Vista Green
4. Vista Red

 

although these skins belong to a common category (Vista Like) I've used different reflections for each to achieve more customization :oui:

 

Featuring :ar: http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/5039/kittrd1.gif

 

All new Kitt and Kitt(astro)
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/1183/kittjr3.png

 


With these new skins, I tried to resemble the famous Kitt in 'Knight Rider' and I really don't know whether I have succeeded or not :mdr:

So that's it from me for now :oups:

Hello Everyone,

 

I have decided to make some comments for future skin designers for RocketDock.

 

RocketDock does not have its own theme format.  We decided that there were far to many formats for all the docks.  And the difference between each is minor.  All they do is rename each settings for the themes.  So instead, we (Punk! Software) decided to just make a dock that uses all the various formats already out there.

 

The default themes in RocketDock are created using the MobyDock DX theme format. You do not have to create RD themes using the MobyDock format.

 

RocketDock Supports the Following Formats:
Y'z Dock (also AquaDock)
ObjectDock
MobyDock

 

And the next version will support RK Launcher themes as well.

 

If you know a theme that does not work properly in RocketDock (or a new format we do not support)  just come by the Punk! Software Forums and lets us know.  Include a link to the theme and a screenshot of what it is supposed to look like and we will work on getting it to work properly.

 

Thanks guys!

They're great!  Only one comment though:  The "Vista" seperators look stretched, and I hate to say, is the only thing that stops me from giving it five stars.  I swapped in the seperators from the Crystal Clear dock theme (included with Crystal Clear Bricopack) and it looks perfect.  Thanks for this lovely work and all the best in your future work!

Horizantaly?
or Verticall?

 

I'm sorry for that :oups:
I may not have witnessed that since I may using the dock in different size or resolution.

 

Solution :ar: You can open the sep files in the approprtater folder and scretch them to fit your desires :wink:

Il faut d'abord envoyer un chèque de 35 euros à "Bumpy.org" - fondation dans le but de payer de jolies vacances à Bumpy  :he:

 


Nan, tu télécharge le zip et tu le décompresse dans le dossier skin de RocketDock ou thème de ObjectDock - tu retourne sur ton Dock et par un clic droit lifté tu va dans les paramètres généraux et tu choisi un des trois skin de Neil.

 

A+
J'attend ton chèque  :lol:
