Changing the color of folders

How do I change the color of my folders? I've also seen people with more than just the volume control and Apple script icon on the top bar. How do I get stuff up there?

Changing the color of the actual folder is actually changng the icon.. changing the color of the label is a matter or right clicking (ctrl clicking on a one button mouse) and selecting label color...

the things in the menu bar are actually differen programs such as adium, or menu meters

Okay, how do I change the icon?

Click to expand...

google candybar it's an app that let's you change icons, the long way is to copy an icon you want to use, highlight the icon you need to change then file>get info, click on the icon in the info window then edit paste
