As the dock has changed with DP4, so have the files that required replacing to modify the dock. Simply put, I've always hated the silver dock as it makes the open apps indicators harder to see. I always replace the four scurve*.png files with black images. However, those files aren't used. I've spent the past afternoon researching, playing around, trying to find the new files, no luck.

Any ideas? Thanks!

It's no longer possible- they've transitioned to entirely Core Graphics drawn dock UI. I believe even the indicators are drawn in Core Graphics. This was their original intention since 10.0. It actually seemed like Leopard's dock was just a fancy last-minute gimmick they hacked together.

Well, the indicators and frontline are PNGs, but I believe you're right about the rest of it.

Can someone post the frontline.png file from the GM? I somehow lost my original playing around with stuff. Also, for clarification, are the scurve files even present in a fresh install? I have modified versions of those in the Dock Resources but didn't know if I could just delete them since they're not used.
