Icon Collector is T-Shirt-Ware. If you decide to keep it, you must send me a T-Shirt (size L). My adress is listed below.
WHAT IS IT:
Icon Collector allows you to create icon collections by merging customs icons from multiple applications, files or folders in a single document, to save disk space. Icon Collector extracts icons from your collection by creating new folders with theses icons.
STEPS:
• Launch Icon Collector
• Create icon collection by choosing New from the File menu.
• Add icon(s) to collection by dragging applications/folder/files/disk… to Icon Collector's application from the Finder.
• Extract icons by selecting an icon from your collection by double-clicking the icon in the collection.
• Cut/copy/paste supported between Collections and Finder's Get Info box.
WHY IS IT COOL ?
Try to copy the custom icon of an appleshare volume or a CD-ROM with zillions of files from the finder :
- select the volume
- Get Info, wait, wait, wait : the Finder is calculating the size....
- copy the icon
Try to do the same thing with Icon Collector
- launch IC
- create a new Collection
- from the finder, drag the volume(s)'s icon(s) to Icon Collector's application icon
- copy the icon from the Collection's window
