Cactus User Icon in Jaguar?

I just upgraded to 10.2, and I'm very very pleased with everything.

That is ... ALMOST.

Apple got rid of my beautiful cactusy-pink-sky user icon and replaced it with a dumb close-up! EVIL APPLE! If somebody would be so kind as to post the cactus icon from 10.1 on the board as a png, I would be eternally grateful. TIA!

Which Image? This one?

Desert.png

It's pink with a cactus. And uses the old small shadowed box format.

See, I was smart enough to backup my entire HD when upgrading. Then I reformatted the HD, then installed. Then I copied over all wanted files including User Pictures.
 
Yay! That's the one. A million thank-yous.

I was stupid and only backed up my user folder. *sigh* When will I learn?

Many thanks, once again.

Most people say "Oh, yeah. Just back up your User folder. That's all you need."

WRONG!

Back up EVERYTHING! There are files scattered all over! I am the only user of this computer, yet I still like to use the Root /Library folder when possible. That goes for Screensavers, Desktop pictures, User pictures, PreferencePanes, EVERYTHING. If there's a way to place it at the root, I do it.

I am also careful when I install a new OS and only bring over files and not old System parts from the previous version. So, it's not for everyone. But it's what I do.

You're just lucky I visit this forum all the time. ;)

Enjoy. :D
 
That's just like apple. They seem to always kill certain aspects when they update 10. When they updated to 10.1 they killed Thai language support along with some other languages. Now they're killing user icons and desktop images.


Why I ask??!!!??? WHY!!!!!?????
 
They didn't KILL them. They replace them with different icons. I was smart and kept my old ones so I have a lot more.

Though I only use one. The button with the NeXT logo on it from NeXTStep OS.
