    Yes, but the silly is often more irritating.

    Long story.
    Go on! Tell us. You've built it all up now, so you can't back out. It can't be stranger than using the name of a second-rate homosexual Greek tragedian, can it?

    While you're at it - how about a full size pic of the Windows "Dock" the screen shot on the developer site isn't very good.

      Why would that be a long story?

        I said something I shouldn't of. And enough of that..

          Well, in summary, it was originally going to be my middle name, but it wasn't. But because my first name is so common, people frequently refer to me as Asher IRL (though far moreso online since I use it as a nick).

          Here's how my Dock is configured as of this moment. It's quite configurable in the options, plus virtually everything can be modded easily by replacing the PNG files as needed. You can even select your own program icons using any-sized PNGs that you want.

            Well it gives us something to do until Asher posts his desktop with the dock.

            And it bumps it .

              No one is getting at you. We just want to know where Asher's name came from. It is such an unusual name, after all. Having said that I can't see why someone would call themselves "Fez".

                I told him he reminded me of the character "Fez" off That 70s Show, and that's what he changed his name to (and avatar).

                  Re: the Dock

                  Looks good actually. Are there any problems with resizing the icons or are you restricted to certain sizes?

                  Actually, I quite like the XP icons. But then again, they were designed by the Iconfactory which has a lot of nice stuff.

                    Well David you weren't the first one who told me that. Three weeks before it was brought up here somebody in my school thought of it and decided to put it in the school newspaper. Right after the newspaper was released, everybody started calling me Fez...

                      You're not restricted to any size, but the PNG files you used should be square in ratio for it to look non-distorted.

                      There's also high-res versions of them out on the net (128x128, 256x256) for people who find the stock ones pixely.

                      It's a Hebrew name, technically. Or at least it's most common that way.

                          I really don't think I look like David Duchovny. At least, not anymore...

                            Where?

                            I usually custom make my own icons by combining free ones from xicons, but I wouldn't mind messing around with the winXP icons.

                            Do you have a link for the hi res versions?

                            Thanks in advance if you do.

                                They used to be linked on the old www.samurize.com page, but they just redid it and ditched the links it seems... Or their links section isn't back yet.
