Hi everyone,
Is it possible to change the Home folder icon? It looks daft to me and wanted to get something a bit different. I've tried just cutting and pasting like with other folders, didn't work
Any help would be appreciated

From their FAQ
Q) How does CandyBar work?
A) Sitting within your Mac OS X System folder are a number of simple individual icon files. Some of these icon files are bundled within system apps, such as the Dock or the Finder. Others are used globally, such as folder icons. All of these files are loaded by the system when it needs to display your everyday Aqua icons.
When you use CandyBar to change an icon, it quickly and easily automates the process of swapping these icon files on your disk with a brand new CandyBar-generated file containing your own swanky, personalized icon. Put simply, it swaps the old icon file for the new one. At the same time, it runs a number of built-in safety checks to make sure the system icons are what CandyBar expects, and that nothing has changed without CandyBar knowing about it. In additon, a backup of your original file is created, so you can restore to an original file (icon) at any time!
Q) Is CandyBar considered a patch or "haxie"?
A) No. CandyBar is not an extension, patch, or "haxie". It does not modify any system code. It does not modify system memory to patch your applications. As a result, the stability of individual applications, such as the Finder, Dock, etc. is not jeopardized by using CandyBar.
