Iconfactory Announces Indiana Jones Celebration for Mac

Iconfactory Announces Indiana Jones Celebration for Mac

by , 5:00 PM EDT, May 6th, 2008

In celebration of the new Indiana Jones movie, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the Iconfactory on Tuesday announced that it has set up a page that will include Leopard (and Vista) resources: icons, custom dock for Mac, and desktop pictures.

"For the past 6 months, artist Anthony Piraino has been crafting all new icons for Indy’s return to the big screen, and so we’re kicking off May with a re-release of Anthony’s original Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark collection, now with beautiful large resources for Mac OS X Leopard and Windows Vista.

"Indy’s bullwhip, trademark fedora and treasures never looked so good! In addition, the CandyBar iContainer sports a fun custom dock, and Dave Brasgalla has worked up a special Indy desktop picture perfect for armchair archaeologists," the Iconfactory said.

The Iconfactory's Indiana Jones home page currently has desktop icons. More items will be released throughout the month. A special desktop picture for Macs and iPhones is also available now for download.

I downloaded the Mac icons, but the "Staff of Ra" headpiece doesn't show up, just a regular folder icon....

... or did the Nazi's just get to it first?

You are digging in the wrong place

I took a look at that desktop picture, they did a good job.

These days I rarely go to opening night, or weekend, for a movie. However, I think I will do it for this movie.

You must be using Tiger. If you look in the extras folder you'll find another headpiece and this note -

"Note on the "Headpiece - preLeopard" icon:

Due to a strange, elusive bug in the Mac OS, the Leopard version of the Headpiece icon doesn't show up in OS 10.4 - it displays as a generic folder. We've included this alternate version of the Headpiece icon without the 512x512 resource. It should display fine in OS 10.4."
