Publisher's description of CandyBar
From Panic:
CandyBar lets you quickly, easily, and safely change the default icons in Mac OS X. You now can attach an author's name, e-mail, and URLs to iContainers. Jaguar Open/Drop folder states are supported. Customized Finder and Trash icons now stick better. CandyBar also is integrated with Picadex, an icon organizer.

In version 2.6.1 CandyBar is now a Universal application for improved speed on Intel-based Macs; there is now built-in support for up to Mac OS X 10.4.9; and several other enhancements and fixes have been implemented.

This program will not work with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard. Use CandyBar 3.0.

Editor's review of CandyBar
The art of customizing your icons has come a long way, thanks to CandyBar, a utility designed to customize everything from the look of the Finder toolbar, folders, the Trash, and everything in between. With CandyBar, nothing is sacred. The thoughtful interface makes swapping icons easy by simply dragging and dropping. We really like iContainers, which pack a set of icons into a single file. You even can save your current icon scheme to an iContainer to quickly switch among custom-created sets. Overall, CandyBar is a wonderfully simple application that makes dressing up your icons a joy.
