What Is IconDropper?

IconDropper is a software program that allows you to customize your Mac's icons on-the-fly through the use of Drag-n-Drop technology. Instead of having to copy and paste custom icons from many different locations on your hard drive, IconDropper stores all icons in custom designed sets called "packs". A single click is required to update any folder's icon and see the results in real time.

Simply Control-click on a folder or file you wish to set an icon for. If you have the Contextual Menu extension loaded on your Macintosh, you'll see a menu like this appear.

The icon will instantly be set out in the finder and you can quit IconDropper to return to the desktop. Its that easy!
