My Problem it sometimes gets behind certain windows , even if Always-on-top is marked .. interesting its usually MS windows , like IE and Outlook .

hmm...why would you want it on top? it gets in the way

...at least depending on where you put it

nice! I like your clean desktop.

July 7th, 2003

its on top as a replacement for desktop icons , or quicklaunch icons .. aka something that gives me quick access to favorite games/apps at all times . and when it disappers and i have to minimize all windows to see it .. thats not quick :\

Ah, but rooting thru the god forsaken Start menu (even if you have it organized) can be a pain in the ass. I just press win+m to minimize in an instant.

July 7th, 2003

shudders , using the start menu !?

I gotta find something like ObjectDock , but that actully works - OD is slow and buggy :\

N1ghtw0lf · July 8th, 2003

OD is very slow...uses up like half my ram

...at least that what my computer says

RF · July 8th, 2003

Well, there is a built in windows feature. Make a folder anywhere (Local C: will work). Then fill it with Icons. Now right click on an empty spot on the taskbar. Scroll up to toolbars, click new toolbar, browse to your folder and voila!

ye ai know i do that...but i like the dock idea..uninstalled it today though...

Whoa, that's scary.

What is it with people and wings these days?

July 8th, 2003

Reich , that like using the quicklaunch .. but i like the way OD displays things , plus the alpha icons are much better looking that way without taking window space .

July 8th, 2003

You'd be better off puttin all those downloads and setup files in a folder or something , just to save space
