stupid question,
i tried to change the icons using the old 0S9 copy and paste method, but it didn't work. Could anyone shine some light on that for me. Highly appreciated.

It *should* work... watch and learn (it's only 400 KB).

Does that answer your question? :)

Aaaah, I think I see where you may be having trouble. The Finder often has trouble refreshing after some icons change, namely for apps and drive icons. You may have to relaunch the Finder (or log out and back in) for the changes to take effect.

Watch another fun little movie for details (620 KB this time). :)

Hmmmmm...how did you make it so when you click on the Finder icon, there is a "quit" option? Pretty sick if you ask me. <img src="graemlins/smokin.gif" border="0" alt="[Chilling]" />
