    I don't understand how you can live with Foobar if it doesn't have a search bar.

    I find Browser Panels set to Artists and Album works the best. I barely ever use my search bar anymore.

    OK, used LiteIcon instead of CandyBar to install iContainers, and came up with this:

    Points if you get the naming of the hard drives.

    I know this is super late and I don't know if you will even see it, but where did you get those icons? They are pretty sweet.

    Thanks :)

    The audio player? I'm using mpd with Sonata as a client. The text in the lower left is just a really simple Conky config using the built-in $mpd_* variables.

    Not really a huge fan of it right now. I love the dock icons, but the wallpaper is just eehh but it is the best battlestar galactica logo I can find. None of the others are dark enough or whatever. I will probably change it soon. Also I find it weird that I am hanging on to the default vista scheme for so long. But it is pretty.

    Hopefully someone can help. I have a bunch of PNG files I'd like to turn into icons but I can't seem to find a good free program that will allow me to do this. Any suggestions?

    The old fashioned way to do it is ImageMagick, although I'm sure theres a free app with a GUI that can somewhere. If you do use it though the command is pretty simple. Something like:
    mogrify -resize 32x32 -format ico *.png
    
    Careful not to overwrite something that you want though.
