Changing Google Chrome icon OSX
Changing that ugly Google Chrome icon in OSX
I have to say I really hate the default Chrome icon. I recently found this decent icon by Mustafa Haydar and made a .hqx version for Mac.
He also has another really cool Chrome icon, neochrome, which is newer and seems an evolution of the first.
To convert .png files to .icns / .hqx, i used the website iConvert, then to actually change the Icon, you have to:
- Extract the .hqx file
- Get info and click on the icon image. Copy (cmd+c)
- Select Google Chrome app in the Applications folder
- Get info, select the icon image. Paste (cmd+v)
There you go, you now have your new icon :-)
Nice alternative icon for Chrome on the Mac. Have to say that I never really minded the original but these are nice. Tip of the hat to @erugalatha for Tweeting it onwards.
