Description

******Update*******

I have added a new programs icon. (the old one is still included)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

3D VINTAGE WOOD For the Rocket Dock application.
rocketdock.com/download

Over a month in the making. Finally ready for the public.


"Comments please"

This is a "2.5 D" dock which includes icons (a first I think) . There are three perspectives for most icons, so that the illusion of perspective isn't broken no matter where you place the icons. (LEFT,CENTER,RIGHT)
This dock is a work in progress, and suggestions can be sent to the icons and dock were made using 3d models that I have made myself.

The icon size must be at maximum for the dock to look good. All special effects and zooming spoil the quality slightly. But there is an alternative dock which is better used with plateau zoom.
The dock looks most pleasing when it is always on.
1280 is the best resolution width to have for this skin.

This dock is only useful if you use the stack docklet by Matonga rocketdock.com/user/5475


Download the stack docklet from here: rocketdock.com/addon/docklets/…

How To Install - 32 bit system:

Additional info:

You need to select your icons on your dock. Go to icon settings and change the icon. The icon folder is included in the download file. If your icon is on the left then choose icon xxxx_Left. If it's closer to the middle then xxxx_center. The lamp, trashcan and pistols don't have perspective yet. I will make more icons if there will be demand.

The old radio is modeled after a Meridian 210 made in the Soviet Union, in Kiev in the year 1977. deadity.deviantart.com/art/Mer…

The pistols are modeled after the CZ 75 B from the Czech Republic. And made by Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod. deadity.deviantart.com/art/CZ-…

The trashcan is an attempt to make a 70's New York trashcan.

HELP HELP I DON'T GET IT!!!!!!!

This is how my dock is set up. The more special effects you use, the worse the dock will look. All animations just distract you from your job anyway; get back to work.

You need to download stacks docklet rocketdock.com/addon/docklets/… Then my dock will become useful because you can't use too many icons on this skin; it will not look as cool.

Definitely my favorite dock so far! I love the icons, even inspired me to improvise a few!
I use stack docklets so I use your pistols for Shooters, a small matchbox car for racer games and a few little soldiers for Sci-Fi or any other games. I even did a whole wallpaper special for this dock... you should check out my desktop here [link] maybe we can collaborate into enhancing this dock and its icons :D
