The whole Dock theme was called Float. The original site I found it at is gone now, so I don't know if it's available anywhere. If anybody wants, I can send them the blue indicators.

It's from Pixar's new film Up, which is directed by Pete Docter and Bob Peterson, and set for release on May 27, 2009.

I resized a very high-res render into a 1680x1050 wallpaper so that's all I have.

Cheers.

Almost halfway through April, here is my second desktop change. I am sure this won't be the last though.

It's a chocolate bar in the UK. Just like a block of chocolate..

orkie is a chocolate bar made by Nestlé. It was originally branded by Rowntree's of York, hence the name. Compared to bars such as Dairy Milk, it is very chunky, and has been aimed at men.

[edit] History

In the 1980s for example, toy Corgi Yorkie lorries were available and TV ads featured truckers. The recent ad campaign made this more explicit with the slogan It's not for girls, which caused controversy. Nestlé also received complaints about this campaign from Norwegian and UK customers[citation needed], who find it sexist and distasteful. Special versions for use in Ministry of Defence ration packs read It's not for civvies. In 2006 a special edition that was for girls was sold, wrapped in pink. Aside from the original milk chocolate bar, several variants have and are still being produced, like a biscuit and raisin flavour and even Yorkie Ice Cream.

For a time, trains arriving at York railway station would pass a billboard which read "Welcome to" and then a picture of a Yorkie bar, with the end bitten off, so it read "Welcome to York" (and beneath it, the slogan "Where the men are hunky and the chocolate's chunky")

DESCRIPTION OF SNACK:
Standard milk chocolate bar - thick chocolate. Rich taste. And that's about it... until you notice the "It's not for Girls" tagline on the side of the packaging and start scratching your head.
