What's recolored? The wb looks normal to me.
I sure hope it looks normal, but the original B85M is blue, not green.

Well, butter my butt and call it a biscuit!  You did do a very subtle change there, I missed that!

Think I'll be needing some directions there... Norway may be a small country, but we're past the 5 million mark and that beats more than half of the states in the US. Just sayin. 

He put a new wb out a few weeks ago, though, so fingers crossed for more to come.

I use those same hard drive icons on my Mac.
About the icons: Made by Fernando Cruz (submicron), an exceptional wallpaper creator as well over at deviantArt. The icons can be found here: Hardrive systems icon

Hey Yall I am driving myself crazy with the Nexus docks. I am trying to get rid of the File path bubbnle that pops up on hover over my icons. Any Idea? Running Windows 10 and Nexus ultimate

Open the dock Properties window (e.g.; left click the Nexus icon in a dock, assuming you haven't removed it from the dock, otherwise use the right click context menus), go to the Behavior tab, click the More Options button, change 'Show balloon information tooltips...' from Always to whatever you want.

Submicron is a very gifted artist. I have most of his walls, some paid even.

So, been playing around with Rainmeter as mentioned previously in this thread.  Decided to 'use' IceBabee's graphics from her WindowBlind Ultron, to have it matching and all.  Took a while to sort out the different docks though but got there in the end.  Started off with the Hard Drives and it ended up with a really long dock, so chopped it up a bit with 3 HDD's on each instead. (Just showing my oversized first try for comparison. )

As can be seen, decided to go with the Start Menu layout on the docks instead of the ones IceBabee has for boxes in the blind.  Also, still trying to sort out the System Info a bit better, but for now that has to do.

Still have one dock left of Don5318's Rainmeter set, Dark Spirit, in an attempt to try and figure out how to make the Bar for the amount of GB shift colour when reaching certain percentage of the drive, like Orange once above 75% and then Red if getting over 90%.  Still not figured it out though.

Just a slight update to the above.  After some more searching I found a good guide on the Rainmeter Forums as to how to change the Bar meter.  Create a Bar meter with Shapes which was posted by jsmorely and once I sorted the Bar meter colouring thing I tried for hours to get it working on the Circular Bars as well, but to no avail !   

Before going to bed I decided to post in the above thread and ask how to do it.  Turns out it don't seem to be possible to do it, and considering that the creator of the thread is one of the Developers I guess that's that and have to find another way to make the System Info look good.

As the saying goes, the search continues !  

Ohh and here is the (for now) final dock setup.
