Look at mine, I have even more shortcuts than you, but they are "integrated" in the overall looking of the desktop. That's what deskmod is about.
The background is just one part of the dektop, the way you combine wallpaper/icons/shortcuts/skins is the important thing for a nice general looking. The best wallpaper ever with stock icons, shortcuts all over the screen and a skin we all have see million times is useless. Maybe he wants to put the same dock on the top, it would look really nice with his wallpaper as well.
Unless you have a very old system, no.
Anyway, is just RocketDock with Reflections icons.
Unzip all the icons somewhere in your computer. Rag and drop shortcuts to the bar for adding them. Then right click to edit properties and select the icon you want.
