Overlooked Mac App: Can Combine Icons

Can Combine Icons Infinity to the Power of Infinity brings you an easy and to-the-point program, Can Combine Icons. As the name suggests, this little gem puts two icons together to form a combined “badged” icon ready to spruce up any plain folder list. Not only can icons be simply plastered one on top of the other, but they can also be merged in 3D perspective, presenting a Mac OS X-style folder, or a perhaps customized disk image icon. To save time, Can Combine Icons comes bundled with a library of standard folders, icons, and disk images.

Once you have your icons created, saving them in a batch is painless, allowing you to apply the same style overlay onto many sources, or vice versa. Can Combine Icons also does small tasks which often require more complicated applications, such as converting between ICNS, TIFF, PNG, and Windows XP icons. A nominal shareware fee will register your copy, but a fully featured trial is available for free. For all your drag-and-drop icon creation needs, Can Combine Icons is up to the task.
