Dock Icon Viewer

This one lets you view image or icon files inside the Dock, a handy thing for application developers to test how their new icon looks when displayed in the Dock. Just start up Dock Icon Viewer, then drop the file on the little drop window to see your image appear inside the Dock. Works with various image files, as well as PDF and icns files

img2icns

This app really comes in handy for those of you who like to change the default icons that come on Mac OS X. mg2icns is a a small and simple utility that converts JPEGs, PNGS, TIFs, and GIFs to the ICNS format, which is used for Mac OS X applications icons. For instance, the Country Stamps is a beautiful collection of flag icons that can be used for mail.app. The problem is that they are delivered in a .png format. Just drop the flag that you want to us on the img2icns and it will create a .icns file. Its this file that you can copy and paste to replace a standard icon.

Micon

I have always liked this one. And so will anyone else who has used the Inspector or Get Info options in the Finder to change an icon before. Micon does it much quicker. Drop the folder or file with the desired icon into the FileWell on the left, then drop the folder/file whose icon is to be changed in the Well on the right and hit Set.That is easy. Now consider that Micon lets you drag-and-drop great multitudes of files into the right FileWell and change them all at once. And then there is the incredibly handy History menu to remember icons that you have previously bestowed, as well as contextual menus and a mini-manual for easy instructions (as if the program were not intuitive enough).

CocoThumbX

CocoThumbX, a favorite of my artist brother, changes your images icons to the images themselves. For example, a picture of the Bellagio fountains from your last Vegas trip probably has a white icon with the letters JPEG on it. Drag the picture to CocoThumbX and the icon is immediately changed to a thumbnail version of the picture itself. Very cool.
