Folder Brander Customizes Folders
Problem: OS X lets you keep frequently-used folders in the Dock and the Finder's sidebar. This is great but how do you tell the folders apart? Well, you can't! Of course, you can customize your folder icons using a graphic app and a separate icon app. If you've tried this, you know how time-consuming and frustrating the process could be. FolderBrander lets you quickly and easily alter the look of your folders. Pick a base icon from the built-in set and place a short text label over it. The text can be rotated and skewed to match the orientation and perspective of the base icon. Picture: http://www.yellowmug.com/folderbrander/screenshot.png Price: $ Free.
