Hi... want to ask something... is it possible to change the setting so that the Recycle Bin won't show up in the desktop?

If so... how??

Wa... just like that?? shocking.gif

I spend almost all night try to figure out how to change the icon for my foobar and media player classic I put in the RK Launcher... doh.gif

Haiyo... never thought it was so ol' school style... blush.gif


Thanks a lot guys... notworthy.gif

=====================================================

OK... another question.

I'm currently using IconPackager for my normal icon. And RK Launcher as my docklets blush.gif


What are these icons here for:
http://interfacelift.com/icons-win/index.php?sort=ratings


Somehow now I am having a problem of recognizing what icon for what and where to search these icon for these particular programs.


The only docklets I'm using for my RK Launcher is the default which I get out-of-the-box. I can't add new ones (except changing it when I add new applications... which I have learn just now)

And a lot of my icons can't be detected by IconPackager sad.gif


:: EDIT ::

Change my question regarding RK Launcher above... from words icon to docklets sweat.gif

@Dominant Star

I try to answer ur question.

For the first question, those icon is for those who wanna have unique/alternative icon for certain program.Those icon usually come in .png  and .ico format.

see my pic below:

For the 2nd question, Icon Packager can only detect icon set that made only for the program.
You can download new docklet from dockex.com

BTW, can u explain a bit more about ur question no.2

Thanks... you have already explain much on the problem I'm having. I thought at first... those icons from there is for IconPackager. No wonder I can't use it at all. Those icon... are they for some particular programs?? Or we just take it and change the icons of applications we want to use in the properties of the icon's shortcut?

=====================================================

Ok.

To change icon for certain program/application in RK Launcher, u just click right at the program that u wanna change the icon, chhose "Dock Item Properties".There u can choose to use custom icon or default icon.

The pic that u shown is for adding new docklet.
To add docklet, go and download the docklet that u wanna use (remind that only download docklet that specially design to be use for ObjectDock or Y'z Dock)

After finished download, extract the file, then u will see a folder with the name of the docklet that u wanna use.Cut and paste the folder into "Docklet" folder.

BTW, I suggest u to use CandyXP tp change icon.Easy and freeware.
