For the Windows version, see [link] - keep in mind that this is old and out of date. Want something newer? Keep reading!

From now on, I will laugh at anyone who watches this account

Presented is a screenshot from Catherine Chaton's old computer of the British Library icon set, developed chiefly by myself and her. The set contains over 540 full-size (512x512) icons for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, which, in turn, weighs in at approximately 190 MB of PNGs. Most of these were produced over the course of a single week.

Major applications are represented with a book for an icon, to encourage regularity in their appearance (and to make additions to the list quick and harmless.)

Yes, 544 motherfucking icons. Big ones. There are one or two at smaller resolutions because they never have to be shown at full resolution.

Of more importance than just the icon set itself is the fact that a nearly-complete (if not totally so) set of system replacement images is provided. Everything from Front Row to iSync to that stupid little lock/unlock animation in the security system has been replaced. One or two programs, such as Audio/MIDI Setup, have been completely untouched because they weren't on the computer we developed this set for, but said computer has not a pixel of aqua icons or stock art anywhere. ANYWHERE.

Some day, perhaps, we'll work out a Windows version of all these things, but the degree of compatibility won't be all that high. (And you'll be limited to about 64x64 as far as usefulness goes, which will suck, unless you use huge-ass thumbnail mode in Explorer at 128x128.)

Best of all, a set of bundles will be available for OS X users with which they can replace all of their resources at once.

...but that's 297.15 MB: [link]
...so here are the source PNGs, too: [link] (They're only 191.04 MB)

It'll take a bit of time to re-release all of the components, but hopefully patience will be available amongst those eager

Please witness Catherine's site if you look at this stuff or enjoy it. It would not be without her tireless work that this stuff exists. I may have come up with the directory and the document icons and so forth, but she packaged everything up and made it worthwhile. Her site is here: [link]
