Automate changing icons for apps
Sunday, May 10th, 2009If you change an app’s icons (application icon and/or toolbar icons) and that app is updated quite often it can become a pain to keep changing them each time. Here’s an Automator workflow to automate the process.
Drag the custom icons you want to use to the window in the ‘Get Specified Finder Items’ action.
To add the Resources folder (where you will copy the custom icons to) to the ‘Copy Finder Items’ action, right click on the app you want to modify the icons of & select ‘Show Package Contents’. Open the Contents folder to find the Resources folder & then drag this from the Finder window to the location drop down list in the ‘Copy Finder Items’ action

Save the workflow as an application, then any time the app is updated run the Automator app to change the icons.
To automate it even further you can set up rules in Hazel to automatically change the icons once the app has been updated without having to manually run the workflow yourself.

Custom Dropbox Overlay Icons
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008Leopard Folder Icons Updated
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008I’ve updated the Leopard folder icons.
As I made the icons months ago (using the folders from a Leopard beta) I found that the folder icons from the released version of Leopard had been tweaked slightly.
This is especially noticeable in the 16×16 versions. I’ve also increased the contrast of the in the 16×16 versions to match the standard Leopard icons more.
Custom SafariStand buttons for Leopard
Thursday, January 24th, 2008I’ve updated the custom ‘New Tab’, ‘Stand Sidebar’ & ‘Action’ icons for SafariStand.
The Action button could do with being wider (same width as the other buttons) but that’s a limitation of SafariStand (or Safari?).
Old icons top, new versions on the bottom

Update:
They’ve now been added to the official release of SafariStand.
Custom Leopard Folder Icons
Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008I made some custom Leopard folder icons for myself a few months ago, & had no intention of releasing them. But a few people have been asking me where I got them/can they have them etc.

Update:
The Finder folder is now being used in Default Folder X 4.
The Tag folder will be used as the default tagged files folder in the next version of Punakea, & Tag Folders.
Time Machine button in the Finder Toolbar
Friday, December 7th, 2007I wanted to have a Time Machine button in the Finder Toolbar & be able to activate it from there.
Makes more sense to have one there & get rid of the icon in the dock to me (I usually use Quicksilver to invoke it).
