Long gone are the days when being a Mac owner was all you needed to be a little different. Now everyone and their bother has a Mac and they all act as if they are so "special" (Well I've been using a Mac since 2002. So there!). So I figured out a way to be different again and I'm going to share it with you even though everyone will start doing it and I won't be different anymore. I'll get over it.
Have you ever wanted to change your icons? Most people know how to make a quick icon change. Just right click the icon you want to change, select get info, then click on the current icon in the upper left and paste your new image or icon. That method usually works fine. However, sometimes it just isn't enough. What if you wanted to change the folder icon system wide? That's where CandyBar comes in. CandyBar is a software made by Panic that allows you to change all your icons. I love Panic.
After you get done changing all your icons go get Magnifique for free and change the theme of your Mac. Do you ever get tired of looking at the same menu bar and dock every day? I love when Apple comes out with a new version of OS X because I finally get some new scenery. Now with Magnifique I don't have to wait for Apple anymore.
Another awesome tool for customizing your mac is iStat Menu by iSlayer. This tool displays your system stats in the menu bar. So you're always be aware of the status of your computer.
Heres a screen shot of my computer.
I'm using the ClearBlack icons and I did replace the folder, trash and Finder with my Matrix icons. Find more icons at IconFactory and InterfaeLIFT. The theme I'm using is Mistikons Dark. You can find all the themes you need at Mac Themes.
