Some suggestions to improve Fantasktik
This a great little application that is a good replacement for Unsanity's Fruitmenu and Windowshade X. It just needs a few improvements one of which has to do with Snow Leopard.
1.) It needs the ability to add it's own customizable Apple menu like Fruitmenu did.
2.) In Snow Leopard I've found the icons of applications in the task bar show up as very small icons as illustrated by this screen shot with red arrows pointing out the small icons. They were a much larger size before I upgraded to Snow Leopard.

Inappropriate?1. FruitMenu is an haxie and I don't want to mess with undocumented stuff with Fantasktik. I did that with Sidekick in the first versions of Fantasktik and it was a support nightmare.
2. Did anything change in your Applications folder? I don't have any issue with the icons in SL. -
Inappropriate?1. If you are uneasy with haxies you might investigate how uBar does it.
2. As far as changes in the Applications folder, I didn't change anything. Upon further investigation I found several apps that had normal sized icons while the rest show little icons. I tried throwing away preferences since they might be corrupt but that did nothing. If you had no problems this might be one of those intermittent bugs. Thanks for replying anyway.

Inappropriate?Is there anything specific to the applications with the small icons?
Fantasktik is using a very simple API that requests the icon from the Application bundle. So the problem could be caused by Fantasktik picking up the wrong bundle location or a bug in the API in Snow Leopard (I doubt it since nobody else reported a similar issue). -
Inappropriate?The only specific thing I can see is that all of the big icons are third party software but the small icons include some third party applications as well as Apple's applications. I don't know what else to say. It's quite a mystery.
