I don't get the disdain for the folder icons...I like them.

They are a tad distracting at first, but they grow on you. I'd personally like to have the option of going to a tan color, like the color that most folders actually are...but I guess that would mess with the whole color scheme?

Just be glad you didn't see the first developer preview when they were using reflections in the finder windows. I'm still not sure if that was intentional, or just a glitch. :confused: That was awful...

Im a Mac user since 2011 and I also never used to Dock. Could anybody tell me what the Dock is used for?

NEVER used the Dock? WTF?? I could not live without it. Quick and easy access to applications/folders, dragging files for quick saves...too many uses to name.

I was pissed when they removed the abilty to change to "no Glass" via the command terminal...so happy when they removed the 3D Dock completely with Yosemite

Maybe I'm blind, but I've never even noticed the difference between the Yosemite PB folder icons and Mavericks...perhaps it just doesnt matter that much to me....it's just an icon, I don't really give a shib

Inconsistent appearance of pressed radio buttons

Looks nice … notification center …
Click to expand...

It took me three or more consecutive viewings, each one disoriented, to realise that the wrong button appears to be pressed. To me the pressed button is clearly Notifications. With that as a heading, I was naturally disoriented by the things below appearing nothing like the style of notification with which I'm familiar.

The wallpaper I'm using is based on one called "Wolke" which is pretty popular in Deviantart. Since it's such a basic design, I basically upscaled it to 2560x1600 in photoshop and vectorized the layers so the images stayed crisp, then tried applying 4 different color schemes. Here they are if you want them… not sure I have permission from the original author, but it's probably not going to get distributed too much anyway:

Dark Aqua


Dark Graphite


Light Aqua


Light Graphite



For the Dock, I'm using a program called cDock. Here are the custom settings I am using (they're stored as text files.)

In the themes subfolder of the application support folder for the app. A Mavericks view:

I use the Secrets pane for System Preferences. The second screenshot shows the result of my current preferences:

I just edited one of the pre-existing templates that come bundled with cDock.

Right click the app, "show package contents", then go to Contents -> Resources -> app_support -> themes. You can edit any of the templates. This is a modification of the "Fullscreen - Horizontal" template basically. Once you make your change, save the text file, reapply the theme in cDock.

There's also a "settings info" file in the app_support folder that tells you what each number does. It basically controls the red green blue color values of the dock, the alpha (opacity), and some options for borders and width, etc.

I'm assuming once the final release is out, all of the windows will follow dark mode? Kinda sucks that only the desktop is dark. Also, is anyone else bothered by the fact that the "Trash" text in the Trash window is white on white? Aside from PB2 being laggy, it's nice.

Here's the wallpaper I've been using. It reminds me of the design of Yosemite. Mostly stark whites and greys, and a few splashes of color.

I found your image striking. I have to say, everything on that desktop goes very well together. Good eye.

I think I've settled on a final design:




Support the original artist who made the wallpaper. The ones I posted earlier were my own modifications of one he made years ago, and he has released a much cleaner, refreshed version in the time since. It has a lot less color banding and dithering.
