there have some very good dock backgrounds released lately but is anyone making some to match mike's Cypress WB skin?

so how exactly do u use these?  OD+2 doesn't recognize them in the documents background folder it creates

some nifty ones there

I've replied to your thread, i agree with redneck there are now two back ground folders,one is in my docs the other going by reds post it seems od 2.0 places one in the prog files,that'll be how i have that one in another partition,however that one has folders inside back grounds,you would have to place the correct zoomer into it's folder or tabbed or non tabbed or tile after unzipping it of coarse..lol..

This has actually been the case for some time now.

Quite true. But the things that go into the folder in your documents , at least for me, don't show up in OD.

No, actually, they just need to be in the backgrounds folder, OD will sort.

right, so why does it create the same folder scheme that objectdock 1 uses, if it doesn't actually use it?

Those folders that were created inside the My Documents folder were for the .dockzip file fiasco.  DON'T PUT YOUR BACKGROUNDS IN THOSE FOLDERS.  It's been established time and time again that the dock skinners are making their docks to be put into the Program file folder because of custom plus/minus images.  I'm pretty sure that WebGizmos, Mirsguy, messiah1, bkgarbageman and a few others all talked together and came to that conclusion.  It makes sense to me as well.  Nobody has problems with their backgrounds showing up in the Program folder, only the My Documents folders.  It ain't rocket surgery.
