OK, so that was a long title. But anyways, go download the original World Of Aqua and World Of Aqua 2 sets. I think they're much better then the candybar sets.

WOA is indeed a great icon set. Sure I use lots of different icons, but WOA is sort of my "default."

Ya, I remember going into OS X and manually replacing every icon that I could find. I got really cozy with the "Show Info" window. Always been a great set.

This is how the official Apple icons should look like, the standard blue folder is starting the look very ... well euhm... 10.0-ish...

Yup, they're too cool, been using them since they came out.

I agree! SmoothStripes users, this also suites you very well (no stripes, yet Aqua-ish.)

The only reason I like the candybar set better is because the folders "open" when you drag something on top of them. The original WOA set doesn't do this...

Now if they could change that action, I'd switch in a heartbeat.

All glory to the hypnotoad.
