$ defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES; killall Dock

This may already be my favorite Leopard hint of all. Keep up the good work!

I love the fact that the "open application" dots are so much more visible against the 2D dock. I even threw the white wallpaper behind it and could easily tell which apps are open.

I wouldn't mind the 3D Dock if the light-blue marbles weren't so hard to see against the "reflection" of the Dock surface.

I actually submitted a Leopard hint for the contest, but if this one ends up winning I won't complain...

The blue dot files (indicator_large.png, indicator_medium_simple.png, indicator_medium.png, indicator_small_simple.png, indicator_small.png) can be found here:

/System/Library/CoreServices
Right-click on Dock and "show package contents"
/Contents/Resources/

Be sure to check out http://www.blambert.co.uk/smokedock/ for a tamed-down version of the 3D dock.

Have fun, and remember to backup!
