any easy to find place to download stuff for Object Dock

Background themes, docklets, icons, etc.

Changing the background
Installing docklets

I use the free version as well, it's not a trial that will run out. The Plus version just offers way more goodies.

Can it be changed?
I don't like apps putting their settings folders and such in the My Documents folder. Makes hard to organize the folder neatly.

First you need to download backgrounds from the ObjectDock gallery ...to easily find backgrounds ...when you are in the gallery.... type in backgrounds in the search field located in the upper right hand corner of that page.

Unzip these to your background folder found in My Documents Object Desktop

Then open the configuration icon on your desktop ( you can also just rightclick on the dock & select Dock Settings) & select Appearance ...click on the arrow and select the background you like..You will also be able to change the color

It's My Secret

How about Thomassen's question? How do you move the ObjectDock Library BACK to the application folder where it used to be. "My Documents" is for MY documments, not the application's.

I guess some people may like it that way but it should at least be an option. I tried moving it but it recreated itself.

To answer the original poster...the folders for ObjectDock in "My Documents" can just be deleted. Basically they were created for use with the .dockzip format which would autoinstall everything from backgrounds to tiles. But very few people including myself do not use the .dockzip format because I as well as others don't want these extra folders in "My Documents."

The original location for the backgrounds..tiles and side docks is in C://Programs/Stardock/ObjectDock/backgrounds. Everything can be placed in there and work just fine. Another reason for keeping them there is so you get full use of custom Plus/Minus images that are used with tabbed docks.
