Everyone at school was impressed anyways. Once before my school used the st louis ram head logo and once the dodge ram logo on the shirts that they let the kids buy

Anyway, it's sparse since I don't have much going on a clean install, but here she blows: Hopefully someday I'll get a real workable resolution like 1400x900 or 1680x1050 and then have room to play. bb

If you have a huge PNG icon collection (like me ) get pixadex and convert png to icon format, if not, download mac icons from DevArt, interfacelift etc etc. Also, if your drives are NTFS you wil have to refer to a guide to change them. If you need the guide ask me!

If the drive is FAT 32 this is what you need to do!

1.> right click the drive, select 'get info'
2.> open finder and navigate to the icon file.
3.> copy the icon file (ctrl + c).
4.> select the get info window, click the icon on the upper left of the window, until it show a border.
5.> now paste the icon file (ctrl + v).

Icon changed.

this is a quickly written guide. if you don't understand, i'll attach a few screenshots!
