Object Dock - no longer able to submit .zip files???

from WinCustomize Forums
So, i just finished a new icon pack, i created my preview, and i put the icons in a .zip file... i go to submit it, and in nice evil red letteres it tells me i cannot, because i can only submit my file as a ".odock" file. Does this mean that we can no longer submit our icons as .zip files?? Or did i miss something in the submission process??

It might depend on the 'category' you're trying to upload into. It happened to me initially (mid December 2004) when trying to upload a docklet. My workaround at that time was to just rename the .zip to .odock - this confused a few people who downloaded it but leave a comment explainaing it.

Havnig said the above, I recently updated the docklet and it took the .zip just fine. So no real answer except the workaround above, sorry.

Should still take zip files. I tried a couple of other zipped icon files, just recently posted and they all had the zip extension. Waa it just a warning or did it refuse to let you upload?

The ObjectDock library is configured to accept the following formats zip,odock,docktheme and panel.  With odock being the default format.  I just did a test upload using a zip file and it was accepted without any problems.

panel? Wazzat?

docktheme

Shouldn't that be doctheme (without the 'K')?
