The Breakroom

We have to admit that we’re not huge fans of April Fool’s day, but this year seems to be different. Our favorite game company, Blizzard, posted a hilarious fake game trailer for World of Warcraft: Molten Core (move in any of 8 unique directions!), and YouTube has somehow managed to Rickroll the entire world.

And since Mr. Astley seems to be the new king of April Fool’s Day, what better way to celebrate than to stick his suave 80’s face in your Dock, as your AIM buddy or Twitter Avatar or even as a desktop pattern! Head on over to the Freeware page to download our latest QuickPix, make that RickPix, and join in the fools day fun!

Dave Brasgalla’s new Refresh series gets a second installment with this ode to springtime and all the beautiful blossoms on the trees! Sakura is the name for both ornamental cherry trees and their blossoms in Japan, where they are considered a metaphor for the transient nature of life itself.

Refresh Sakura contains over 20 folders and a custom dock style for all you CandyBar users out there. Along with two new companion desktops (both clean and with blossoms) Refresh Sakura is a great way to bring a little spring to your desktop. We invite you to download Refresh Sakura for your Mac, PC or as a CandyBar iContainer.

Dave Brasgalla has been hard at work creating an all new style of desktop folders just for Leopard. Designed to be slick and easy to read at a glance, Refresh is the first in a long line of new additions coming to the Iconfactory.

Dave has created over 20 folders that will feel right at home in the new operating system along with a custom dock style for all you CandyBar users out there. In addition, you can complete your Refresh make over thanks to the companion desktop available in widescreen, fullscreen or iPhone version today. We invite you to download Refresh for your Mac, PC or CandyBar iContainer and change those boring Leopard icons. You’ll be glad you did!

The Smooth gets even smoother! We have been literally flooded with email over the past few months from eager fans wondering if or when the beloved sketchy goodness that is the Smoothicon style would make the leap to Mac OS X Leopard. The answer is yes and the day is today!

Corey has been hard at work resizing and tweaking and is happy to offer an updated version of the Smoothicons system replacement set released back in early 2003. This set had been updated with all the current icons required to give your Mac OS X Leopard desktop complete smoothness. It also includes a snazzy custom dock for CandyBar users. You can finally get your Smoothicon fix today!

The last part of the Arcade Daze makeover is now complete. Ged’s completed the first volume of application icon replacements in the Arcade Daze style just for you! Now you can give your apps folder the retro refit that it’s been crying out for since the original release of Arcade Daze. Over 75 apps have received the old school treatment including Twitterrific, Coda, SlingPlayer, Microsoft Office, AppZapper and many more. In addition, iPhone and iPod touch users will be delighted to know that all of the home screen icons are also included. This means if you’ve jail broken your iPhone or iPod Touch, you’ll see the new Arcade Daze Springboard theme pop up in the installer app soon.

But that’s not all! Arcade Daze Applications Vol. 1 also includes an all new custom dock style for CandyBar users and Ged’s even thrown in an Adium dock icon for good measure. With last week’s release of the Press Start and Game Over desktop pictures, and the original massive Arcade Daze System replacement set, you now have everything needed to turn your desktop into this. Show those pixels who’s boss and download Arcade Daze Apps Vol. 1 for your Mac or PC today!
