I’m a huge fan of VMware Fusion for Mac OS X, but I thought the icon that it ships with it application could use a little work. Above all else, I wanted it to be Leopard ready, as the maximum icon size increased to 512×512, and the one that ships with VMware is only 128×128. So, I put together what I hope is a suitable replacement for it. You can download the icon by clicking on the thumbnail at right, or check out the full size preview before grabbing it.
To install the new icon, browse to your Applications folder, find VMware Fusion, and View Package Contents on it. Open the Contents and Resources folders, and replace “fusion.icns” with the icon from the linked download. You may have to authenticate and delete the icon first, and then drop in the new one. After the Finder and Dock processes restart, you’ll see the Leopard-ready VMware Fusion icon in place.

That looks really good. Nice work.
Hey,
what software do you prefer to make mac os X icons?
thanks,
For the most part, I just use Photoshop.
Excellent icon. Photoshop definitely rocks (except for the price). Collin, if you have some spare time, would you mind making the Dock in the icon smaller so it blends in nicely with the Taskbar?
Also, the only way to download it, as far as I can see, is to click the icon on this page. I clicked and the .icns file I got was smaller than the “full size preview”—only 128×128.
Could we have one made with a Vista styled desktop please?
