Re: [Icon] Happy Mac

It looks excellent, but I seem to be having a problem when I use Liteicon to set it as my Finder icon. See the screenshot here:

The icon I dragged into the bottom of the Dock shows fine, but the one set as the Finder has that strange banding effect. But it's the same icon! Any idea what causes this?

I love the background to your link - could you maybe make that a wallpaper?

Not sure, unless it's using a different size.  It worked fine with CandyBar in my testing.  Sorry, wish I had a better answer.  Thanks everyone for the great feedback.

Edit:  It looks like it's using the 256 or 512 size by the way the face looks.  Hope that helps a little.

I've considered making a set with blank, sad mac, and bomb faces.  Not sure what else would go in a set that matches the style.  I'm up for suggestions though, not that I have a ton of free time though.

Well I was thinking you go all out and make a "retro" icon set. With the rectangular mouse and all the old mac hardware. I guess I mean a system set for Canybar....there now doit!tongue
