My old thunderbird icon looks so pathetic next to my new Firefox icon that's why I re-did the old icon. I made it icy... next to fire, it looks cool

It's in 3D, animation, shadows, reflections, rotations, etc.

This is how the animated icons works:

First get the docklet here:

http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=2074&libid=29

Then:

1. put folder "Animated Shortcut" at:
C: \ Program Files \ RocketDock \ Docklets

2. then copy and paste the folder "Animated Icon" at:
C: \ Program Files \ RocketDock \ Icons

3. copy and paste "An animated icon" icon to the folder "Animated Icon"

4.rightclick the dock and add Animated Shortcut

5.rightclick the new empty space on the dock / configure shortcut

6.set the image (navigate to "The name of the icon" in the Animated Icon folder)

7.set the path





If your icons disappear when you restart your PC, this is the solution:


At all with Vista/7 I contact PolyVector and get this answer:

This is due to Vista/7 security not letting RD write the docklet settings to Program Files. A quick fix would be to install RocketDock outside of "Program Files" like in C:\RocketDock...

So I close my Rocked Dock and I move the RD folder from the Programfolder to C:\ -and it work.I make a new start and all my configure are not deleted.. :-)
