					Hi Billy,
I don't know why, but I've always used ObjectDock and I've been perfectly happy with it. I don't use any dock software now though as I found I wasn't using it enough to make it worthwhile having - it was just annoying me when I wanted to click things towards the bottom of my screen.
They're both free, so I'd suggest trying ObjectDock and if you don't like it, try RocketDock 
 
They both have a wide range of skins/icons available, so in my eyes, they're evenly positioned.
Tom

					I prefer rocket dock, it provides an awesome clean interface to drop shortcuts on for quick access and organization.
