Object Dock new 'skins' (Rant)

Object Dock new 'skins' (Rant)

I think it is about time to do the same as with walls, speak to take new submissions to the OD section out of the Newest Additions box... It becomes annoying... People, please do packs and don't upload every single icon as a seperate task. My rant for the weekend.

Leo : Well, I have a new job since October that is taking most of my time. Building up a new IT and programming all business software from scratch is very time consuming as You might guess. And my wife wants to have a bit of my time also. But nevertheless WC is my second home.

Same here, but no big deal. I don't have tons of stuff to go through and moderate.

Calle,nice to hear you are busy, buddy. Yeah my wife likes a bit of my time as well but right now i think she would like a bit of my neck if she could get hold of it Second home! I think this is my home - much better than the dog house outside which is where i have spent the last couple of nights for shall we say.......conduct unbecoming

BTW Love the updates that you have done on Mike's/Mark's and Pixxy's stuff. Real quality and hope you do some more of it when you get time.

Iconpacker should become into the 'highest'.
Working on some icons and takes me about half an hour to create one singel icon!

I agree full icon suites have to be one of the most challenging things to create in the world of skinning. Especially the really good icons.

Changing your icons is a mjaor step to changing how your destop looks.

people would be extremely disappointed to download an IP theme to discover it only contained one icon

p.s. 20/20 newest additions now ObjectDock

I would have to say I don't agree with this, it doesn't seem right to discriminate against certain types of skins. I would like to see wallpapers still in it, and object dock icons continue to be featured as a part of it as well. I do think that selecting certain ones would be a nice change, maybe by rating or something similar, but some icons and the packages and docklets have no less work in them than any window blinds skin or winamp player etc... It depends on the work presented to me, if a wall or even a single icon is worth noting it should be displayed as such in there, but I do agree that ho hum stuff or thrown together copy paste work isn't deserving enough to push ANY window blind or such work off of it.

Other than that I think that little box on the right ought to be exactly what it says, "newest submissions", not "newest everything except walls and object dock related work"

Perhaps a solution to this would be limiting the amount of OD icons shown in the list, just as they did a while back with the wallpapers, but that wont solve the problem of the overflow in the OD library and how this individual images are pushing all of the work back 5-6 pages within hours of upload.

100% of all Newest Additions are OD icons as of now.

yip, there definetly needs to be a better selection of which are put on newest submissions, and the overflow is an understatement, I think many people that used to get any wallpaper up they put up that can't now because moderation was increased migrated to object dock because basically everything is accepted and they are rather easy to complile.

Packs of 6 or more icons have a shot at the list, singles excluded?

horizon your missing the point,I think they plan to have more than one list...problem solved.

.Jafo there must be something wrong with my account then,about 15% of my uploads miss the list entirely(to the extreme of being posted 60 places back) or start near the bottom.

.Everything deserves a ride down the list,walls included.Thats why I'm advocating multiple list.I have an animated 'poof that took about 7 hours to make,...think I didnt care if anybody noticed it?

.those posting dates dont appear to reset to me,it seems to be purely a function of upload date and how quickly after that you were posted.(at least in my case)
