Where to find volume mount icon on Leopard

Question

Hi,

I want to change the default icon of a dmg, I'ld like to do like skype or dropbox which use the default image volume icon, but I don't manage to find it with the finder. Do you have any idea where I could find it?

Thanks for your answer, Boris

Ok I didn't find the icon in the finder but you can download the full icon set here : here

Also if you want to set the dmg icon from the cmd line :

• cp < your file.icns > < your mounted image path >.VolumeIcon.icns (make sure your dmg is writable)

• SetFile -a C < your mounted image path >

The second command line is used to tell the dmg to use the icon once mounted.

If you want to make an icns from any kind of image, have a look at this freeware : img2icns
