Hi

I'm not sure about the icons you seen in particular, this is a purple set:

Only problem is its for windows, not in an os x kind of format, im new to mac, but ive heard you can take the windows icons and somehow convert them to the os x format...
I have not seen too many purple icons out there...maybe try pixelgirl site, or interfacelift, or guikit.com....Here is a screenshot of a cute purple desktop:

Its by ultraman...not sure exactly what icons he is using...some I think probably personally customized maybe you could send him an email asking what icons those are coz those are kind of nice...well i hope you find something purple soon!!! i know it can be so frustrating looking for certain colors!!!

Purple is one of my favorite color ^^^


The icons shown in my desktop are modded in purple or home made like the box, the trash and the "miss beaver"
To change an icon color to purple, just open it with photoshop or the gimp, and change hue/saturation (apple+u with photoshop).
