Yep, got to:
System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app
(right click: show package contents)
then Contents/Resources
The images are: expose-window-selection-big.png for normal windows and: expose-window-selection-small.png for minimized windows.

Having the image the same size and making the visible part smaller reduces the size of the highlight and the other way around.

Anyone got a good idea on what to change it to?

Thanks! I cant believe waht an ugly color apple chose for it
The SL GUI is such a terrible arrangement of contrasting elements... i cant wait for Magnifique to work on it

Maybe making a clear png, or at least a near-transparent white would do what you want. I'd try it myself but i dont have an actual mac around right now and i dont feel like installing SL on my hac quite yet.

Yeah maybe your view is much more perfect than mine. I'm not a designer or something like that, so just have ideas and nothing more

That isn't possible, you can't embed blur into an image (although that would be awesome)

I made mine black, looks like a shadow

Too sad that's impossible. That happened because i know nothing about design Well it would be so cool btw

It would, but it would be very hard to see. Even my black color is hard to see as the screen dims.

So the blur effect in the new stack is impossible to reply?

It's a Core...something.  Can't remember the full name.  It has to be applied by a program.  An image can't do that.

Here's something I quick came up with to replace the blue:

I tried replacing the glow by making it black, but it's still blue. I even deleted the blue glows. What's going on?

You need to restart your dock.app

either open terminal and type: killall Dock (then press enter)

or log out and then login.
