4. That's it! The icon you selected is applied to your file (or files, if you selected more than one).
IconIt takes the hassle out of assigning new icons to files and folders in Mac OS X. IconIt puts a convenient menu of all your icons in the toolbar of the Finder. Just select the file or folder you want to change, choose your new icon from the menu, and you're done!Joe Lester, the lead developer of IconIt, says that people who love icons will love IconIt. "I really haven't been able to find anything else like it, especially for OS X. Once you experience how easy it is to apply icons to your system this way, you won't want to go back to the 'old days' of opening up Info windows and all that tedious copying and pasting. IconIt makes it simple." I would love to hear your feedback.

New "Add Selected Icon(s)" menu item. You can now add the icon(s) from your Finder selection to your IconIt menu without having to rebuild!
The IconIt menu archive is now saved at "~/Library/Application Support/IconIt/IconIt Menus" instead of the application bundle. This will prevent future upgrades from automatically triggering a menu reload.
A bug that caused problems while in the Finder's Column View has been fixed.
