Okay. I've been loving Fences. Just a few suggestions or issues.

• Have it so png's can be used (possible?)
• How much customization ability do you plan on putting into this? Will we be able to skin it?
• The only annoying part for me (not so much annoying, but it took me some getting used to) is when I put a folder in a fence, it grabs the folder that the folder I want is in. Also, the folder is no longer where it was, it's now part of the desktop/fences. This is a bit of a pain when I am looking for that particular folder from PSP or something and it's not where I thought it was. I have to scroll back up to 'DESKTOP" to get it, IF I remeber that is where it is and don't have a panic attack thinking it's been destroyed or deleted. lol. I don't know how others would fel about it, but having the folders be just shorcuts would be nice.

Wow, this is really cool. At first use it reminds me of dragthing for mac. It would also nice to create url's and put them in fences also. But then that would be in conflict with my rightclick app. [ i put my favorite links in it ] But that would be a very efficient feature for people who don't use rightclick [shame on you] Anyways, love what i'm seeing with this app, and hope to see further developement with it's progress. 

I've got internet shortcuts in fences.  Isn't that a URL?

Pretty much. Technically, a URL is just a bunch of text. A shortcut is a small file that tells the OS where something is - in this case, it tells the OS to launch the default browser with the URL.

So yeah, you can put URLs on the desktop and in fences.

Just drag and drop the icon of the website onto the desktop. Works with any major browser.

Bah.. *waits patiently, ......okay maybe not SO patiently* for an invite to the beta

*runs off to check email again* hehe

Sounds great and I am waitin for an invite to the beta

Anne

ah didn't know that/ didn't try that. either way cool!

This is so cool!  

Just a double click away from an unimpeded desktop, dream or the use of my sorted shortcuts!  Now I can use an ObjectDock zoomer for everyday stuff, OD plus tabs for infrequent stuff and Fences for stuff I use every now and then! (Like defrager, backup prog, CCleaner Etc.) 

I like the fact that they sort of dock to the sides and each other, even when sizing.  Makes lining them up easy!

Me too.  That Jeff is a clever bugger.

Anne, here's your invitation: http://islanddog.wincustomize.com/articles.aspx?aid=321808

It would be nice if it remembered it's show/hide state between shut-downs.

Everytime I turn on my computer, Fences is showing, even if it was hidden when I turned off my PC

I am keepin an eye out and hopin that I will  get it soon or sometime.

Anne

Sorry... I posted that link intending to direct you to the info site. I didn't realize you'd already signed up for it. Maybe we protest and form a picket line...

Any updates since the initial beta?

Just checking in..

Just checked the website. No updates as of yet, far as I can tell.

One more minor issue: When I rename a file or folder that is in a fence, once I'm done renaming it, it pops out of the fence. Is there a way to keep this from happening, or is this a bug?
