You know that little computer icon in each window you open, well I guess you can costumize it differently. Well I'lll let you see what I'm talking about: http://www.homepage.mac.com/ibook238/.Pictures/macicon.jpg
I wanna know if you can change that icon? I would perfer a little Key Lime iBook :D :rolleyes: Well anyways is there a resource thingy or something? I'm a little tired of that little Indigo iMac icon, although it is cool because it's from Apple... I thought I saw the LCD iMac icon on the LCD iMacs at the Apple Store, or I just might be seeing things!:rolleyes: Any help?:confused:

what do you mean by this: This is my new account formaly MacLuver23, something got screwed up in that account?

Well I used to have a Macrumors account under the name: MacLuver23. I loged into Macrumors at School, Home and on other PCs and Macs. Then it stoped working. I got a message when ever I tried to post or start a new thread: It said my account wasn't activated or I was banned or something like that, and it was acting like it didn't know my username, i loged in agian and agian but it didn't work, this went on for weeks ... :( So after finlay giving up, I made a new username with a different e-mail address, I tried to ask for help about my username from the other members at MacRumors.com but I couldn't reply to messages or post a thread about it,I couldn't contact anyone... I was stuck... So my new username was under my aol email address because when I tried to use my mac.com address it said I already had an account under that address, so I gave it my aol address and later changed it to my mac.com address, and it worked... I needed to go back to the fourms, I couldn't take it... I hope you understand, I wonder if arn can send me all the info on my old account (MacLuver23) and then destroy it...

You can get the new CandyBar app from IconFactory (http://www.iconfactory.com) and it will do that plus some other customization.

No, you're not seeing things. The computer icon on my new 17" iMac is an LCD iMac. I think there was an article in one of the MacAddict Magazines on how to change and create custom icons, cant remember which one though.

yeah CandyBar is a good app. i haven't tried it yet though... but it looks good and you can customize all your system icons.:D

not to slam panic or anything, but i would recomend that you change it by hand. there's nothing like completing your first system level hack (and saving $13 bucks in the process). you have'nt lived until you've caused a sad-mac. :)
