Each skin should have two png files and an ini file in the following format:

Code:

[Info] Name = Test [Background] Image = background.png LeftWidth = 5 TopHeight = 5 RightWidth = 5 BottomHeight = 5 TileVCenter = 1 TileCenter = 1 [Separator] Image = separator.png TopHeight = 13 BottomHeight = 13 LeftWidth = 9 RightWidth = 9

Once you've got these, put them in a folder in your ObjectDock/Backgrounds directory and the theme should then be available for selection in the options next time you start ObjectDock.

To change the icons in the dock, just stick the image files wherever you like and while ObjectDock's running, right click an object in the dock and choose `Dock Entry Properties' and click the `change image' button.
