The theme "might" require Five Icon Dock from Cydia, but I am not sure.

That's where your issue lies. I'm not sure why they don't include it in the download but it's a quick and easy download/install.

1. Its not theirs to include.
2. Could create a conflict if you already have 5-icon installed and the theme tries to install it as well.

The way I used the GO dock without the rest of the theme was to install 5-icon dock, as mentioned, and then install the GO theme. I SSH'ed into it and deleted all icons from it other than those that are on the dock, dragged it above the theme I'm using in Winterboard et voila--I had the GO dock and nothing more from that theme. :)

Five icon dock will solve your problem. I love that theme, I had it for about 6 months straight, and used the blanks orb file to create my own icons for ones that were missing. :)

thanks for the info.

i like the theme, it just needs a lot of customizing like the background/wallpaper is so ****!!!! im not too keen on the icons though as u say u gotta make new icons, i just want the old ones back so i can have everything looking the same.

Just how I said in my post? :confused: Use the blank orb icons that come included in the file (you have to ssh to get it). Then I would get a image that I want to use, and make it white/grayscale and shrink it and put it over the blank orb. I do all this in CS3.

yes, but a far as i know the maker of the glass orb theme is not making any new icons anymore so u will have t do it yourself- which include what the previous post said. thats y i just use the standard icons. (how do i post a image, do u need a url address)

Yes and click the picture icon and paste in the url, or click the paperclip icon and upload the image there.
