Safely and easily swap out your Mac’s icons to give your desktop a look uniquely its own … FREE, with LiteIcon.
If you are aware of the program CandyBar by Panic (for Mac OS X), you know that virtually all the Mac’s icons, even the system icons like the trash can, Finder, etc., can be swapped out to give your desktop a new personalized look. The new version of CandyBar for 10.5 was rewritten from the ground upm and now includes the previous standalone Pixadex built right in — Pixidex is like iPhoto for icons.
Most all the icons I’ve come across are free, yet the artists have put in a lot of time creating them. Up until LiteIcon was developed by Julien Ramseier of Switzerland, you needed to buy software to install free icons. LiteIcon changed all that starting with Tiger (10.4), and now has added a whole new version for Leopard (10.5).
For Mac OS X only
DOWNLOAD LiteIcon 1.2.2 for Tiger (10.4.x)
DOWNLOAD LiteIcon 1.3.1 for Leopard (10.5.x and 10.6.x)
###

For all my friends who either sell or shop at their local farmers’ markets across the country, I humbly present to you a free folder-icon to keep your organic files properly stored in.

It’s just my literal interpretation of Java running on (down and through) a MacBook. The lipstick, well, it just added a little color.

These two icons really have no business being together, so if only one interests you, you may return the other for full credit towards another icon. For more information, refer to the Legal section.

NOTE: This post has been replaced with this one, featuring both the Leopard and Tiger versions of LiteIcon.
In my first post, the one with the free replacement trash cans, I mentioned CandyBar, an application that allows a Mac-user to easily change out virtually any system icon, as well as most others. The price is reasonable (US$12.95) but most people probably have better things to do with $13 if they only plan to occasionally change out an icon or two. Being a designer of icons, I bought a copy of CandyBar and think it’s quite cool.

Of course, this can be used for iPhoto or any other similar application. I don’t use iPhoto much anymore, but I got tired of looking at the stock icon just the same.
It also make a great folder icon for photos. Now saved as an Apple dmg file instead of a Stuffit file.

It’s very playful, yet mischievous, and seems to have a mind of its own (albeit, a small one). Makes you want one, doesn’t it? Or a second, just as a spare. In any event, you can have your very own Mac OS alien icon by downloading it here for free.
Information on this image is slowly coming to light. This is from a classified photo taken in a very secure underground facility at the infamous Area 51. The baby alien was snuck out while hidden in a staff sergeant’s drawers, proving the little buggers do exist.
After an emergency trip to the hospital, the sergeant is said to be improving and his voice is returning to normal.

I do apologize for the title error. It was supposed to say: “Percolating Corn.”
Percolated corn is very much like popped corn, but because of the way it is heated to pop, the corn forms an almost perfectly symmetrical flower shape. Its origins are in the southwest region of the U.S. For more information, please refer to the Legal section.
