I love your website. I’m new to mac, and love tricking my mac with the great
stuff you have here.I have a question, though. How the heck do I change an icon? I messed up
something, and now my iTunes folder has an icon that has the pdf logo.Thanks, Josh
Josh,
Welcome to Mac. I have you covered.
Here is a free app that does it automatically. It is called Micon.
Or you can do it manually with this tutorial from Apple: Change My Icons
Hope that helps.
PS, if you want to practice, there are some great icons for Mail.app here
(If you have a question about your Mac, just ask FMB. We may post it here.)

At the risk of being booed off the Freeware stage, CandyBar is a great, cheap app ($12.95) for changing even the most stubborn icons in OS X.
