The Breakroom

Although all of the workers love their Macs to death, one thing we don’t love are the default system icons that Apple seems to think are the bee’s knees. In the never ending quest to come up with the ultimate system icon replacement, our own icon whiz kid, David Lanham, is pleased to release his latest freeware icon set – Agua. This set of over 60 system replacement icons is smooth and refreshing and designed for use with our popular icon utility, CandyBar.

We invite you to visit and download this latest offering in either Mac or PC format. CandyBar users can download the special iContainer to set all of their system icons to Agua love with a double-click. To those of you not using CandyBar copying and pasting 60+ icons manually isn’t so bad. No, really. :-)

Talos Tsui emerges from the Batcave to bring you this week’s freeware release – The Batman Vol. 2. It’s available in standard Macintosh and PC formats, or as a handy Pixadex iContainer. Head on over and check it out.

With Gedeon’s inbox flooded with fan mail for Futurama Vol.1, was there any doubt that a Volume 2 would materialize on your hard drive? That’s right, today’s freeware release is Futurama Vol.2 – The Humans. This time around we offer up some of the noteworthy human characters from Fox’s defunct, cult hit show Futurama. Join Zapp Brannigan on his DOOP misadventures, or slap that evil industrialist Mom’s sons upside their heads. They are all here and waiting for you for your Mac, PC or as a futuristic Pixadex iContainer. Now if you’ll excuse us, we have an interstellar package to deliver, enjoy!

As our ‘ol pal Charlie Brown likes to say “Another Halloween has come and gone.” and now hearts and minds turn to the warm glow of Thanksgiving and Christmas. We’re getting a head start this year and are pleased to release Iconfactory artist, Kate England’s latest freeware release – Thanksgiving & Christmas. This delightful set will have your mouth watering and your tummy grumbling for all the good food that is coming your way in the weeks ahead. So plant yourself, loosen your belts and download this new collection for Mac, Windows or as a cool, Pixadex iContainer. Bon appetit!

Well, our favorite day has arrived and all of the Iconfactory workers would like to wish you and your family a happy and safe Halloween! We hope you’ve enjoyed this spooky month at the factory including Vintage Halloween from David, the Haunted Mansion desktop pict from Ged and Creeps from Anthony. We hope you’ll join us once again next year to scare yourself silly and decorate your desktop with all that the holiday has to offer. Until next time, Happy Halloween!

As the witching hour approaches we have a creepy treat for your desktop. This week’s freeware release, Creeps by Anthony Piraino, features several sinister monsters emerging from the shadows. They love the dark, and look best when lurking on black or very dark backgrounds. Head on over to summon them!
