They are standard 48x48 WinXP ones. I haven't bothered with any e-icons mods on XP, but I have used IconPhile to change many of the filetype icons.

Got spare money?

What do you mean, find? I alt-tab to the windows I need, I start up stuff by running it in xterms. If you mean files, I usually just remember where they are, but when I don't, I have locate, find, grep, ls, file and a great deal of other tools at my disposal.

BTW... I'm considering moving away from IceWM, too. Currently my first virtual desktop looks like this: http://www.lyseo.edu.ouka.fi/~light...sktop-crush.png. Yep, that's a black screen. http://evilwm.sourceforge.net/ documents all the shortcuts I need for controlling my windows. It looks good this far. I'm now going to do some experimenting to see if I'm really going to like it...

Yeah - you go to yahoo music or amazon and find the cover you want, then just drag it into the cover art window when you've selected the song.

Synergy automatically downloads cover art from amazon if you don't have it. In my first two pics that's what's displayed.
