1) A transparency block,
see when using a background like this

It would be cool if you could hide the icons that are "behind" the logo.

2) Oval re-shaper
When picking a back ground, its often hard to find one that fits the orientation of the slider dock circle. Thus I suggest a way to reshape the oval to your needs.
The way I imagine it working is similar to mircosoft word's oval drawer, where you click and drag your oval and then can reshape it with the ovals.

(It should be noted that I know nothing about programing, so I have no idea if this stuff is possible. I'm just a guy with some ideas ^^;)

I'll keep in mind your suggestions but for now I'm focusing on adding a portable mode for the nesxt release and then I'll try to add some kind of folder type icon similar to rocketdock's stackdocklet, and possibly other type of special icons.

I have multiple rings. I would like to have a ring that has the other rings in it. Sort of a master ring.
I really like having my desktop cleared up.

Hi.
1) Currently there is no mouse support for the shortcuts.
I have been looking in a way to add this because right now this feature would conflict with windows xp and windows 7 aero theme.
I have found a way around it so if it works, I will add support for the mouse buttons in the shortcuts.
But it will be only for mouse that have more than 3 buttons as the left, right and middle mouse are already in use.

2) For now, SliderDock doesn't support custom icons. I will need to change the core of the application to add this and it will take a lot of work, so it won't be for a near update.

3) In the address bar of your browser, there is a small icon on the left, showing the website's logo.
Drag this logo in SliderDock.
You can also drag any url link too.
