3D Launcher Uses 3D Animated Icons For Launching Apps

Leusink/Verweij Software has announced the release of 3D Launcher, a launching application for the Mac that uses 3D icons, animated icons at that, to launch your favorite apps. According to Leusink/Verweij Software: Leusink/Verweij Software today announced 3D Launcher for Macintosh. 3D Launcher is a utility that puts spinning, three-dimensional icons in a control bar on the desktop. It can be used to launch favorite and commonly used programs. It provides shortcuts to frequently used applications, such as word processors, image editing and compression software. But first of all it makes the Mac-desktop more fun! Apple has been including the Launcher-control panel for some years. Now 3D Launcher brings that same functionality with a much better looking interface. Designed by a professional graphic artist, 3D Launcher icons spin, move and shake the desktop. Colorful and lively, updated for the multimedia age. You can find more information or download the demo for 3D Launcher at the company's web site. 3D Launcher costs only $15 for private use. A corporate license (unlimited users) is $100. When run as a demo it only launches some items. The Mac Observer Spin: We've checked out the demo and it is pretty nifty looking. 3D Launcher
