Changing Snow Leopard Icons

Hi to all,

I guess mine is a simple question, but so far I haven't found the answer on Google. :)

I'd just like to change the Snow Leopard mp3 icon (ugly and dark) back to the nicer, lighter, friendlier icon that was used before my upgrade.

It must still be on the system because often when I load a new window with mp3's, the old icon is visible for a second and then changes to the ugly Snow Leopard icon.

By the way: if you select an mp3 file in Snow Leopard and select the Info for it, you'll see the previous icon up at the top left of the Info window that opens.

Thanks in advance for your help.
 
If you're seeing the desired icon in the Info window, then the icon is probably being covered over by the preview of the file, which might be the album cover. If you don't like this, you can turn off Finder icon previews in a View Options panel in the Finder.
 
Hi, Earthsaver,

Thanks for your reply.

It has sort of helped; as long as the mp3's are in a directory other than my desktop, they more or less have the desired icon, but if I drag and drop them to the desktop, they instantly go to the unwanted (and ugly) dark icon.

Any further suggestions that might help?

Much appreciated,

Bowjest
 
same things goes for the Desktop..
right-click the Desktop, select "Show view options", and unselect "icon preview".
