    I know it's under System/Library, but it's not there! I let my brother change some of my icons on my MBP, although he said he didn't change the Finder or Trash Can icons. Is there another way I could access the folder because now I'm just curious about where the heck it is!

    Edit: NM, I found it by going through the hard drive file instead of actually using Finder...if that makes sense.

    If you don't have CoreServices, your machine shouldn't be running. I would fire up terminal and see if it is visible there.

    Seeing this got me poking around CoreServices, and I found something that looks fun.

    System>Library>CoreServices>CoreTypes.bundle>Contents>Resources

    Seems to hold all the system level icons. Finder, the trash can icons, all the default folder icons, the apple menu icon, everything. Hope you figure it all out, alandlc.
