Today I have a quick tutorial for you. It's a tutorial about customizing your icons in Mac OS X. I find some of the icons in Mac OS X to be a bit dull. I like to mess around with them and change them to my satisfaction. I hope you find this tutorial helpful.
Those of you who have used Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger know that User Interface customization was typically an easy task and allowed you to make your Mac more your own. However, the software that users used to make these graphic changes in the past no longer works on Leopard and above. But have no fear! Candy Bar saves the day with a drag and drop interface to easily change any icon from a standard application icon to a system or volume icon. For just $29, Cnady Bar allows you to use free icon packs from The Iconfactory to change things up a little. Candy Bar also allows the customization of the dock. You can replace the background texture, "landing strip" seperator, lights and arrows and even convert the dock back to the old 2 dimensional version. Candy Bar is a must have for any Mac geek with a need for a personalized touch.
Download a 15 day trial of Candy Bar free from Panic Software and check out itsthurber.com for more reviews and Vlogs from me.
