J-Mac:
Sorry I am late to the party, folks, but I do want to congratulate all who participated.  The prizes are never quite enough when you consider how much went into these programs in a very short time.

Thanks to all!  You're all winners!

Cool! I've been working on the next version of Circle Dock and will upload another coder preview in the next few days. There is current coder preview up on the Source Code section of my website, but this next coder preview will have a complete set of comments in the code and will allow you to rotate the dock. The keyboard shortcut to toggle the visibility of the dock will be implemented and the ability to use a button on your mouse to toggle the visibility of the dock has been directly integrated into the program.

One thing that I can't seem to figure out is how Magic Formation, Rocket Dock, Object Dock, etc... get all their dock items to move/animate simultaneously. Each of their dock items is a separte child window of the program so you would assume that you would have to tell each dock item to move/animate separately. However, this leads to some jerky/delayed motion. Does anyone have a clue how this is done?

mouser:
And yet another blog raves about Circle Dock:

I just downloaded and started using it.. and believe me, I’ve become a fan of it.
