I'm trying to change my icons, but it's saying the files aren't icon files. I've been working on this for hours and I'm ready to through my screen across the room. Help me I can't bare to look at the same boaring icons anymore

Have you downloaded the Iconpackager program?
I'm not talking about the icon packages, on the site here. You need the program as well.

If you have Icon Packager installed, you can either double click an icon packager file to install it or from the Icon Packager program's file menu, select open package to browse to the icon package file and install it that way.
Once it's installed, you can select it from the list view and press the Load button. Then press Ok to get out of Icon Packager. The package should now be applied to your icons.

Not if it is an .ip file, which is the format most packages here use.

To unzip an iconpackager file just add a "z" to .ip to make the file a .zip file.

Icon Packager will only let me use the icons in the default. When I try to install a knew package it downloads it and I can't get it there. This is driving me crazy..Help
