From now on, I will laugh at anyone who watches this account

Presented is a screenshot from a PowerMac G5 of the British Library icon set, developed chiefly by myself. The set contains over 540 full-size (512x512) icons for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, which, in turn, weighs in at approximately 190 MB of PNGs. Most of these were produced over the course of a single week.

Major applications are represented with a book for an icon, to encourage regularity in their appearance (and to make additions to the list quick and harmless.)

Yes, 544 motherfucking icons. Big ones. There are one or two at smaller resolutions because they never have to be shown at full resolution.

Of more importance than just the icon set itself is the fact that a nearly-complete (if not totally so) set of system replacement images is provided. Everything from Front Row to iSync to that stupid little lock/unlock animation in the security system has been replaced. One or two programs, such as Audio/MIDI Setup, have been completely untouched because they weren't on the computer we developed this set for, but said computer has not a pixel of aqua icons or stock art anywhere. ANYWHERE.

Some day, perhaps, we'll work out a Windows version of all these things, but the degree of compatibility won't be all that high. (And you'll be limited to about 64x64 as far as usefulness goes, which will suck, unless you use huge-ass thumbnail mode in Explorer at 128x128.)

Best of all, a set of bundles will be available for OS X users with which they can replace all of their resources at once.

...but that's 297.15 MB: [link]
...so here are the source PNGs, too: [link] (They're only 191.04 MB)

It'll take a bit of time to re-release all of the components, but hopefully patience will be available amongst those eager

Forgive me, but, how do you install these packages? This is a great set of icons.

AiOlorWile In reply to johnfsomers [2010-06-08 16:39:40 +0000 UTC]

Very carefully and with a lot of trips to Spotlight. It's not really for the faint of heart I'm afraid.

Regardless, this is an old dA account. I'll probably be more useful if you ask here instead!

You may some day get your wish.

Also, my new account (samantha-wright.deviantart.com) is probably a better place to ask for answers.

omg i loves this, could you explain to me how i could get this on my desktop, i'm not very good with computers, i have Vista

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

AiOlorWile In reply to virginia92 [2008-12-18 19:33:10 +0000 UTC]

The full procedure is very technical and very delicate. You can set a few desktop icon customisations from the Personalize control panel, however, and individual folders can have custom icons set for them in their properties (right-click on a folder, choose Properties, go to the Customize tab, and look at the bottom.) Vista doesn't really play nice in general with attempts to modify it unless you get really down into the bowels of the machinery, which can be quite dangerous.

Oooooh. Love it.

But may I suggest you create an iContainer for use in Candybar 3? Unless you use a different program to swap out all your icons.

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

AiOlorWile In reply to Zeke6sic6 [2008-09-14 22:15:38 +0000 UTC]

I'm afraid the Mac set is no longer being maintained. Also, I might note that this set replaces about seven hundred more images and icons than Candybar can support. It's a lot of effort for something that I feel reduces the quality of the set, and I haven't a Mac to do it onβ€”but if anyone else wants to, they're more than welcome. (Just give me credit for the actual icons!)
