Comment 5 for bug 628935

I'm not an expart in design. Buy I think the main problem isn't the width but that they are too concentrated near the bottom. And that they don't become smaller (vertically not horizontally) further in the dock.

In my opinion it should look more or less like this:

but I'm sure anyone can come up with a better design.
