<strong>i found soom cool icons, but im not sure if i can assign the folder icons to folders, not apps. it wont let me. it says i have to pick an app. but what if i just want a folder that opens without an app?</strong><hr></blockquote>
1. Get the icon you want:
Select the icon file and hit apple key-i to bring up the Show Info window from the Finder. Then select the icon picture at the top left of the Info window and press apple-c to copy it to the clipboard.
2. Put the icon where you want it:
Now find the folder you want to change the icon for. Select it by clicking on it once. Then hit apple key-i again to bring up the Show Info panel if you closed it before. Click once again on the folder icon at the top left. This time, press apple-v to paste the clipboard image to the folder icon. That should be it.

damn it, that's ingenious! are ppl just supposed to figure this out by themselves?
I see you have SpongeBob icons, you must be a fan. If you're interested, I created a few SpongeBob desktops which you can get at The Apple Collection (my favorite desktop site). Here is a link of my best one:
hope this works...desktop photo is of my newly found sister at a lakers game sitting behind No Doubt...my daughters are going to their show (No Doubt) this Sunday....g
dang, my's small too....no comment from the peanut gallery please...
mac's girl...save your screen as a bmp or tiff and it should be bigger than saving as a jpeg....i will try that next to see if i can save a larger image of my desktop
....to link as image....use image instant ubb code button instead of the url one...g
How am I making a fool of myself? Because I pointed out the obvious?
I suppose your well thought out rebuttal towards something that didn't include you will really stick it to me, huh?
I'm going to cry now. Your words are like spears through my tender, vulnerable heart! Oh, the dismay! How will I endure your malicious diatribes? I can't bear to suffer your wrath!
I repent. You showed me the light! Thank you! THANK YOU!

<strong>Fear the desktop that houses the PowerBook of DOOM!</strong><hr></blockquote>That's a nice G4 icon you have there -- where'd you get it?

Consequences? Yeah I suppose you making a fool of yourself will really stick it to him!

Please thumbnail your images so they don't
completely destroy the table formatting here.
Besides, you guys are going to get this thread
locked if you don't ease up on the mudslinging and
name calling. Sheesh.
