Step one: Check the time
Step two: Get a sharpie
Step three: draw it on
Step four: Have the time be right twice a day

Candybar, It's a program that allows you to swap out docks and icons, safely.

also check out my deviantart for a few things.

yes,
when you first open it, go 'file' then 'save as' and save the default theme.
then if shit hits the fan just open that first theme that you saved and it will return to normal.
this way you have a backup and it is impossible to fuck your computer.

because iphoto is a terrible, terrible application. Either get Lightroom or just use Finder to organize and an editing application of your choice to edit (photoshop or gimp, depending on your aversion to "immorality")
