Just wondering if there is a way to have different icon sizes on the Panther desktop. I found one ape that works with jag, but nothing so far for panther...

Just go to the desktop, make sure all your finder Windows are closed and press Cmd+j. The little pop-up window will be titled Desktop. You can change the icon sizes there. I just tried it on my 10.3.9 nachine.

I think GoDucks means making each icon a different size like one icon bigger and another smaller but right now it just all stays the same size, you cant make one icon 128 by 128 and another icon another size. Thats why I want the person who invented ave desk for windows to make it for mac, coz it let you do that. I would pay for it if he made it for mac but I dont think it is possible to do f or mac. Sometimes I like icons in different sizes too. Can people do it on tiger?
