Thinking about how to retain the same spacing in portrait mode, as well as to stop the resizing from happening, but here you go- also I'll post the landscape to show off the new dock I built

Thinking about how to retain the same spacing in portrait mode, as well as to stop the resizing from happening, but here you go- also I'll post the landscape to show off the new dock I built
InfiniDock IS compatible with the iPad now. I am using it and can now put as many apps on the dock as I want
It's a little bit buggy but I refuse to use categories without it! Anyway I didn't see any posts about it so there you go...
Also can anyone point me in the direction of a good tutorial/reference on creating iconoclasm layouts for ipad? Hoping to find a dummies guide
Frankly speaking the design of Categories and CategoriesSB is not as elegrant as Folder design in iOS4. But since we are stuck with iOS 3.2 until fall, it is still worth trying.
Actually I like how categoriesSB can be used as another page that launches instantly - makes it very versatile for various theming purposes
@shaotse thats an amazing theme! i would love to donate for it as well. pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. lol
Allright I'll try to get something accessible together over the next few days (obviously I won't take donations seeing as how everything is ripped directly from osx
) The main hassle though is having to theme icons directly into the app folders. Winterboard works great for the status bar and dock stuff at least but everytime you do an update you have to re-hack the app icon files which sucks. The rest is pretty much done with infinidock, iconoclasm, categoriesSB and iblank
I think there is a setting in the Settings menu you have to activate first. Then, it seems to me, that you have to be more deliberate in your swipes, i.e., on a regular iPad screen, you can lightly and quickly flick your finger and it changes screens, but in a Categories folder, it seems like you have to apply more pressure and more slowly slide your finger.
That is my experience, anyways.

SBsettings of course, Categories and CategoriesSB. The icons are Mac Misc. 1 and 2. I hope that helps. I forget where the wall paper is from, someone posted their site on here.
First time to jB for me and I found it to be rather easy to setup.
Just put what I had together for the OSX theme -here
Requires setup of course but its pretty easy and well worth rocking the "macpad"
Battery life was great, although just recently I think there have been a couple winterboard or backgrounder updates that made things weird - haven't fully tested it but you should be good- as far as the themes they are easy to switch off. The only real commitment is getting rid of the overlay/matte stuff - I would say make a backup of those appicon.pngs before deleting if you want to go back to normal icons at some point.
I use Candybar for mac, if you google there are some other programs for windows that will extract the icons as well.
