Better? :p

Yes, much better. :D

That's an awesome desktop, BTW. Got a link?
 
One of many cycling through right now, I've got the Dock darker and no, my desktop isn't usually that clean, but Spaces makes me look so much neater! Heh.

So far, every desktop image you throw at leopard looks so good with the dock and semi-transparent menubar. I think I'll also be modifying the dock soon.

I find that I am constantly changing my desktop pic since upgrading to Leopard. :D

hey guys, how are you changing your docks?

You modify the files in /root(whatever your root name is/system/library/CoreServices/dock -> show package contents of dock -> contents/resources

The files are scurve*, there are 4 of them. Id suggest backing up before you do anything, i backed up my entire resources folder.

First you need to copy the files you want to modify to a new folder (on the desktop for ease), then you need to delete the files you will be replacing in the resources folder. copy the moded files into the resources folder then run
killall Dock
in the terminal.

Theres a whole thread on it here
Improve the appearance of the dock shelf

Mine currently
I can provide you with my moded files if youd like

There's also Apple's way to do it, by typing:

defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES; killall Dock

Into a Terminal window. To change it back to the original "shelf" look, you just change the YES in the command to a NO. Enjoy :)
