Some screenshos of peoples mac desktops I have seen have some really nice icons instead of the default ones.

How do you change these icons to different ones?
Also, could anyone recommend a website for some nice icons to download?

thanks

You can change individual item icons by doing a Get Info on them, highlighting their icon in the Info panel and pasting a new icon over the existing one. To get the new icon, do a Get Info on something that has an icon you like, highlight the icon in the Info panel and copy it.

You can change the entire icon scheme by installing something like ShapeShifter, which allows you to redo many elements of the GUI.

I recommend you to use CandyBar, though its not free, you can try it for 15 days and change even the shape of the dock, system icons, etc. and download free icons and docks from iconfactory
there are other ways to do this for free
