Icontraband is proud to announce our very first exclusive download: MARGIN 1.0!!

Margin is a system replacement icon set, hand-scribbled lovingly in the corners of xeroxed pages and notebooks during times of idle boredom.

We are pleased to offer Margin in Mac, Windows, PNG and Candybar formats with full sized Leopard and Vista variations and each set comes with a snappy wallpaper to complement the set:

And you may have noticed as well, that there’s a 1.0 attached to the name, that’s because we’re going to be updating it and adding to it as we go along, in addition to all sorts of new exclusives coming in the future!

Battlestar Galactica is the best show on TV. This isn’t opinion, it’s absolute fact. If you don’t like it, then there is clearly something wrong with you, and you’re a Cylon. One of the lame ones. With the fourth season underway, we thought we’d collect some of the Galactica GUI options available for you to download. The Iconfactory’s Corey Marion has not one, not two, but three excellent sets of icons for Mac, PC and Candybar and SciFi.com has a series of wallpapers and AIM icons!

So say we all!

Kate England from Marmalade Moon and the Iconfactory has been quite busy lately: first up at the Iconfactory is the “remastered” set for the classic Soon Spring, now featuring full sized icons for Vista and Leopard (and as always with the ‘Factory, a Candybar download is available as well). Kate, also an incredible desktop designer, has unveiled Club Marmalade Moon, a new club where members will, via e-mail, receive exclusive and rare desktop art for free!

Between iTunes, Hulu, Xbox Live, BBC iPlayer, Joost, and network websites, we might need to add four to five additional hours to the day in order to take in all the streaming content blasting through the internets these days. Adobe - who’s AIR self-contained platform is beginning to make some waves - unleashed the Adobe Media Player this week, which adds another streaming content application to the mix. Upon first glance, it offers a solidly designed interface, but it’s got some ways to go; you’re presented with a largely bare canvas before realizing that you have click on the “catalogue” button to find anything new. Contentwise, it’s just getting started, so there are a handful of video blogs and Viacom properties (like MacGyver!), and the video is well compressed. For now, it has nowhere near the navigational ease of iTunes or Hulu, but it excels beyond the organizational mess of Xbox Live’s video store and the indecipherable blast of generic icons and boxes of Joost.
