Beej, you know you can get rid of those white vectors around your transparent dock, right?

How do you do that? I know how to make it transparent, but I can't find anything to get rid of the lines.

This is a script to make the dock fully transparent, and to change the color of the indicator triangles. I 'm pretty sure there's a way to do it in the terminal, but this way is a lot easier. It just looks freaky to see your password flying around the screen fully readable, but dems da breaks of not doing it yourself.

Personally, I think the white vectors look awful. The default dock is so ugly, it makes me want to run back to 9.
 
my dock...

here it is... ;)

On behalf of Mac15, only Aussies would know this one I think...it's a thirdparty application for connecting to Telstra Bigpond Advance for broadband...you see, Telstra doesn't support OSX yet so yeah..anyway, here's mine..

jaykk, noticed you've got the 'show desktop'-app.
that is an app, when you click it, it reveals your desktop right? And immediately with it any open finder window.

I'll let you in on a little secret:
if press apple-alt and then click on finder (in the dock), that does exactly the same thing.
Likewise if you click on any open app while holding apple-alt that reveals all open windows of that particular app, and hides all others.
and there's more...
apple-alt-d automatically hides, reveals your dock. couldn't be any easier.

Ain't that a sweet? X has this built in, I guess that the guys who wrote that did not know of these feature (guess they are winblows' users :D) Sorry no offence very well written of course, because I wouldn't have a vlue how to write such a thing.
Oh dude, that is sweet. thank you. I will love you forever! :eek:

Course Telstra sux..especially their ADSL...the X is XDarwin or the osx version of xfree86...it's useful for somethings but I mostly just use it for The Gimp which is for all you people that don't know, a image manipulator similar to photoshop which is free and better than anything else like photoshop (except photoshop)...
