Changing the Dock in Leopard

just found out that you can change the look and feel of the dock in OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Here’s what it looks like out of the box:

I do like it, but I’m also a little attached to this “other” version:

Just nice to know that you have an option =)

To change the doc to the other version, open up Terminal (Applications > Utilities) and type in these commands:

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

To change it back to the shelf one, just change the YES to NO:

defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean NO
killall Dock

‘killall Dock’ resets the dock.
