Leopard Modifications - Dummy Edition
Everyone can do it. Everyone can enjoy it.
Quit Finder
default write com.apple.finder QuitMenuItem -bool YES killall Finder
By quitting your Finder, all the files scattered on your Desktop will be hidden. Those files will appear again as soon as you launch your Finder. Here is what the modified Finder menu looks like.
For detailed information : Quit Finder
Hidden Application
default write com.apple.Dock showhidden -bool YES killall Dock
Hidden Application will become more translucent than the normal one and also its indicator will become dimmer.
For detailed information : Dock - Transparent Hidden Apps
Dock Modification
Modifying Dock, which is hot topic amongst Mac users as well as diggers, now is very easy to be done. If you're interesting, you can go to Dockulicious and download some customized Dock as well as the easy to use Application to change your Dock. I use Shiny Black Dock, which looks great with white background Application opened on top, for my Leopard.
RSS Visualizer
In Leopard, you can fulfill your daily desire to read all of your RSS with hands off your keyboard by using this cool RSS Visualizer Screen Saver.
How to get there?
- Desktop ▸ Contextual Menu ▸ Change Desktop Background... ▸ Screen Saver ▸ Apple-RSS Visualizer
or - Finder ▸ Applications ▸ System Preferences ▸ Desktop & Screen Saver ▸ Screen Saver ▸ Apple-RSS Visualizer
Icons Drawer
You will find this article on Stacks Overlays, which talks about adding drawer icon to the front of your stacking files, interesting.

Probably would help if you included the terminal commands in your articles as text and not as images. Kind of hard to just copy and paste an image into terminal.

The RSS Screen saver was there in OS X 10.4. You should check out the iPhoto Mosaic Screen Saver though, it is awesome and IS new in Leopard. I have had audiences of friends and family stand and watch this screen saver it is so cool....

I think "defaults" is the command you're looking for.

Compressors cause the sound to swell. They soften the start of a note and amplify the end of a note. Overdrive pedals cause a boost in the sound which can lead to distortion or a fuzzy sound. Distortion pedals do what they say. They distort the sound that is coming out of you instrument to sound like what some call a "dirty" sound. Heavy metal music uses a lot of distortion. Fuzz effects were the first guitar effects built in the 1960's. This effect makes your sound fuzzy. *The national or Dobro resonator amplified instrument, Finding good tabs Vincent - (Starry, Starry, Night) This is a beautiful song written by Don Mclean and it is a great piece for classical guitar. There are many interpretations of this song but I highly recommend you use the arrangement created by Chet Atkins. It is quite possibly the best piece of guitar music ever written.
