Bitchur good try with AniUtil !! the good: "special paste" is automatic, you can keep all the originals (just in case) the not so good: first you have to save all the frames in a new folder giving them the right sequence (numerical or alphabetical) BTW 1 Karma for you !!

Bitchur I'm glad you can use PSP8 AnimationShop to create your first animated icon... com'on ! I'll give a try to AniUtil thanks for the tip :) sydneysiders you are welcome !! :) thanks to both of you for the karmas :D
hi Bichur !! you choose 1 png as the first frame this is the starting point you have to duplicate the I frame + make some change (rotate\zoom) you got the II frame > duplicate the II frame make the change > you got the III frame and so on to assemble the frames together : copy the II frame> open the I frame> using the "special paste" feature paste on the right side and go on the strip will be horizontal ! enjoy !! :CONGRAT:
really... no one is interested on making animated icons ? that's why I have still 0 karma ! :LOL: probably my English is not so clear but believe me it's easy + the results are great !! what about "animatedocks" ? if you like them check this new post : [link="https://forums.wincustomize.com/312548"]WWW Link[/link]
I found that I have no much time as I would to work on the skins \ my freeware graphic application cannot compete with a PS or similar \ at the moment I'm working on the laptop as my desktop is out of order.... I also agree with my average skin rating 2.5\3 stars ... for all these reasons I decided to share not only the skins for the downloads but also the "animatedock" idea (even the source) ... I mean there is no copyright on it + I will be glad to download some 4\5

[quote]P.S. Thanks for the icons,Frankell, even if I am hallucinating![/quote] it's my pleasure Wizard ! ;) some William wrote: "we are the staff as the dreams are made" :HOT: !! Franky I have been running XP with the ObjectDock free version since October 2007 I never had any issues I just repeat that the only feature superior in RocketDock is "minimized windows" to the dock (no entries in the task bar) I have no icons in RocketDock I use it as a mini virtual desktop
[quote]... only in a second time I added "+ ToggleAutohide" as I really think is a good idea to have 1 icon for each desktop side !![/quote] only registering the video I noticed that the ToggleAutohide icon was not the one dedicated to the top desktop side + I decided to go on and to change the icon "live". [quote]I don't care about icons, skins, animations, all that junk. I'm looking for functionality.[/quote] just remenber that we are in the "docks" < [B]"OS Customization"[/B] sec
[quote]I saw the video frankell, looks like that Dock can't stay where it's supposed to be, I don't have time to fiddle around trying to catch my Dock.[/quote] The video sub title is "OnlyForPersonalFun" ! In the very first part I played with the dock moving the cursor in the Positioning > Spacing&Alignment dialog (the "configure dock" was not in the recorded area) AW I made the video for the "NoLoadLimit Dock" preview only in a second time I added "+ ToggleAutohide" as I really
[quote]Btw,you can install/run them both at the same time,OD has a tiny footprint, your system won't even notice it running.[/quote] I had RocketDock before ObjectDock, now I have both running at the same time: I use RocketDock in the bottom desktop side only for the minimized windows (I find this feature superior to ObjectDock as there are no entries in the task bar) + ObjectDock in the left side (the toggle autohide is one of my favorite features very peculiar in ObjectDock)
BTW the 57 frames animated icon is "CubeDesktop Multicolor": :) [link="https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=13688&libid=29"]WWW Link[/link] :)
BTW the great "animated shortcut" by AndreasV is here: [link="https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=2074&libid=29"]WWW Link[/link]
This is an "open" mini tutorial don't hesitate to post your advice request ! Basically you have to work with the feature "special paste" or similar (I use PhotoFiltre) starting from the first frame: - the only image format in the dock is .png - the full "square" size is 128x128 or 256x256 consider to match the max icon magnifying size in the dock (256 pixels) for a simple animation (8 frames) use 128 pixels for a complex animation (20+ more frames)
...thinking of you I uploaded the "zoom effect" template in the Graphics gallery... :) https://www.wincustomize.com/explore/graphics/947/ :) Please go-on with your idea...
(sorry for the duplicate...no edit function today ?) DeskSweeper stays in the system tray, the download is on the bottom of the link: [link="http://www.no-nonsense-software.com/freeware/"]WWW Link[/link]
Also you can try the freewares: Iconoid (let's disappear the icons automatically after a customizable desktop idle period) [link="http://www.sillysot.com/"]WWW Link[/link] DeskSweeper (in 1 click from the taskbar the icons disappear \+ eventually you can minimize all the open windows) [link="http://www.no-nonsense-software.com/freeware/"]WWW Link[/link]
Why not both of them ? I use: rocketdock on the bottom only for the minimized windows (nothing in the taskbar) + objectdock (free) on the desktop left side (the Toggle Autohide it's one of the icons I use more often BTW use my skin) :) [link="http://frankell.wincustomize.com/skins.aspx?skinid=13737&libid=29"]WWW Link[/link] :) I believe it's a very clean solution !!
If you decide for the animated icon believe me it's very simple you already have the 2 images to create the sequence (red + green... also 90x90 it's good) I suggest 8 frames 2red-2green-2red-2green You can use my "RecycleNow animated" as a template: 19 frames x128 height with no tranparency (it's meaning that you can work on them ) just cut the first 8 frames and (in PhotoFiltre)"paste inside" exactly on the borders your images !!
