Hon - Heroes Dock (Object Dock Icons)

[SayitNa]

Well i been searching for some icons to add to my dock so i can quick launch my games i use a program called object dock and i have also search there database but only found one which i didn't like very much.

So i decided to create my very own.
I will soon release them once i setup a website :) so be patient

wow, that's pretty neat man :P I'd love to have such icons on my dock :O

Looks like RocketDock with customized icons...

[SayitNa]

ObjectDock is better then Rocketdock and more updated!

From my perspective, they're about the same. ObjectDock isn't free, Rocketdock is. I was personally never a fan of docs, I rather use Fences (also by Stardock) and organize my desktop icons by category. You can hold my stuff than with a dock.

I should read the thread more caryfully, I have overseen the Object Dock part, sorry :o

[fReShFLy]

Hey bro, I use the same thing. I would love it if you could upload that for me :)

[Tankie]

oh man, how i would love this. at the moment all my game icons are chillin at the top-right corner. something like this would be great

[Jomik]

Hey, awesome icons, would love to have it too! Make one with scout though :P

And I'd like to know what the Network Traffic and such are? Where'd you get those?

Windows Gadgets. Rightclick on your desktop and click Gadgets.

What is the advantage of a dock compared to Win7's taskbar anyway?

[MaxGhost]

Fancy visual effects. Honestly, I don't know. Like I said, I just use Fences + win7 taskbar.

[MaCoy12]

cool..wanna download it asap

[SaiKeD]

Eye candy more or less, I use it at 75% opacity no icons on desktop and empty taskbar except for when I'm gaming. But I don't really look at it that much at that time now do I?

[SayitNa]

Than you all for the comments.

I shall start making a few more soon as well as requested ones which will come first.

Please watch this thread for updates.

They still do the same thing... but like I said, that's from my perspective, a perspective where I don't use either of them and prefer a different method to manage my application launching. I still stick with my opinion that it's not worth paying money for a few extra features that I probably wouldn't use anyways.

Anyways, back on topic, I'm not sure why you didn't just use the regular HoN icon instead of making your own, but still, nice icon :)

Anyways, back on topic,

Can you add "Milky Way" to the end of your location? :(

:andr:

It's the same result of playing the same hero over and over you tend to get bored of the old stuff. And these are really visual designs to make your desktop theme look a little more outstanding.

So yes you do get tired of your game icons and this doesn't change the icon in your heroes of newerth folder. It's still the same icon with the big letter H so don't think i'm trying to modify my install.. It's only the dock has special icons and path location.

[MaxGhost]

I didn't say it had anything to do with modifying your install, I just think I prefer to use official icons.

[PogS]

The official icon looks really bad once zoomed in a dock.
Nexus (http://www.winstep.net/nexus.asp)and XWindows Dock (http://www.aqua-soft.org/forum/forum/89-xwindows-dock/) are by far better than Object Dock and RocketDock ;) They have live icon reflections...
You can use this one (256x256) :

I really agree whith you this one is better than Rocketdock or Objektdock

I would love those icons!
