Some Docky 2 features such as theming are really good things, but it really needs Gnome-Do compatibility !
Here are some themes I made while playing aroud with Docky 2...Also included replacement icons, they're not very different from the original ones, I just wanted them to be a bit smooth.

Attention :
PlasticGlass has to be used in 3D background mode ! Please choose the correct dock size.
Inlaid looks better when using the panel mode !

Install script is provided, only double click it, and confirm if asked (make sure it is executable).

Any suggestion is welcome. Feedbacks are appreciated.

Certaines options de Docky 2 sont vraiment de bonnes choses, mais il manque quand même la ré-intégration de Gnome-Do !
Voilà quelques thèmes que j'ai obtenus en m'amusant un peu avec Docky 2...Egalement inclus des icones de remplacement, elles sont pas très différentes de l'originales, je voulais juste les rendre un peu plus douces.

Attention :
PlasticGlass doit être utilisé en mode 3D background ! Choisissez la bonne taille de dock.
Inlaid est plus joli en mode panel.

Script d'installation inclus, il suffit de le double-cliquer, et confirmer.

Toute suggestion est la bienvenue. Commentaires appréciés.



Changelog
v0.2 - December 31th 2009 :
- menu background fixed (Inlaid)
- install script fixed
v0.1 - December 27th 2009 :

Well, I currently am not able to do so. But .svg files can easily be converted to .png files :
- Inkscape provides a bitmap export feature (here, bitmap means raster picture, not .bmp filetype)
- Gimp can render .svg files to raster pictures (and you then can save to any filetype)
- if imagemagick is installed, you can batch convert .svg files by typing in a console 'convert -background non *.svg *.png'

Sorry for not being able to convert them by myself. I can't use my own computer - its motherboard is dead - and I can't install programms on my sister's computer without her approval.

I don't know if Photoshop can read .svg files, Illustrator is supposed to be able to do so. But I've been told Illustrator sucks in .svg rendering (don't know wich version it was, perhaps the last version works fine with .svg). I'll buy a new computer, but I need to earn some more money and/or stumble upon attractive ads...

I don't know, maybe someone did a stacks plugin, you should have a look at some un-official extensions :)

Well, it's been a while - almost 2 years :o - since the last time I used AWN...I've been running a dock-free desktop for a while in the meantime.
About the icons, Docky actually uses the system icon theme.
