Spell it out with your Dock
For your early-afternoon entertainment, I have the story of Mike Giepert, who happened one day to spell something clever with the icons in his dock.
His website, in fact, has a whole raft of these sets, including those submitted by his readers, to spell everything from "vamp" to "agoraphobic."
What can you come up with? Feel free to take your own screenshots, add them to our TUAW Flickr Pool and leave a comment!

You can also do this with iPhone icons, provided that you're okay with four letters to a line.
jailbreak and you can make it five on your dock

June 24 2009 at 4:17 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyThe "x" is a "c," actually. It took me a minute, too. Right in the middle there.
