Jazz Up Windows Folders with Colors, Textures, and Photos

Does your Windows experience feel like being lost in a sea of plain yellow folder icons? Time to shake things up to bring a new level of usability and creativity to your desktop, with today's discount software promotion, Icomancer!

Icomancer lets you customize your Windows folders with colors, textures, pictures, and more. On a basic level, you can use Icomancer to set folders to different colors to give you a visual way of knowing what each folder contains. But then you can also get creative, moving from colors to opaque and translucent textures for that extra touch of style! Do you have a favorite photo of a loved one, vacation destination, or other topic? Use that photo to create embedded icons or portraits that will grace the folders containing images of that person, place, or thing. Add-on icons extend the convenience provided by the default icons that are in Windows!

Your purchase of Icomancer also opens up the gateway to an entire universe of custom icons that have been created and submitted by Icomancer users just like you! Thanks to the integrated web client, you can link directly into the community libraries, downloading new creations and uploading your own to share. Plus, your submission live on the server, acting as a handy backup in case your computer goes belly up!

Asonof Caithness Looking forward to trying this little prog out.
Mar 29 at 2:43am
Alejandro Caballero John ~ Thanks for the comments!

Asonof ~ Oh, you can try it out now and create your free account... then, tomorrow, upgrade your license to the full thing and get all the premium content packs :)

Stephen Brown Okay, got the registration code and downloaded the program. I've created an account and installed the software, but I can't find out how to register the program? Please help.

Alejandro Caballero For those users that missed reading the checkout page after hitting the likes: you're going to receive a coupon code by email. The instructions to claim that coupon code are here: http://www.lavasoftworks.....php?id=71

Please note that the coupon claiming feature was added to icomancer a few days ago, so please update it or you'll not be able to claim the coupon!

And don't hesitate to post a support request if you have any problem over icomancer's forum, here or by replying any email you get from icomancer's server.
LAVA SoftWorks Vendor - Mar 30 at 1:49am
Alejandro Caballero Stephen ~ I've already replied to your comment by email. Please update icomancer and get the instructions from http://www.lavasoftworks.....php?id=71 to upgrade your account :)
LAVA SoftWorks Vendor - Mar 30 at 1:53am
Stephen Brown Ignore my first comment, I was confused by the wording for upgrading. The registration code I received via email was in fact a coupon code. I clicked on upgrade copied the emailed registration code into the coupon code field filled in where I found out about this program (i.e. BDJ). now it's registered. Thank you to the developer. looking forwards to trying this out.

One suggestion. I'd remove the nude image from the as it may offend some users. (It can be found via the Imbue section - just click on the online icons browser tab and you'll see it. It's really not bad, but my wife wouldn't like me using, lol and if you are using a family computer it's not really appropriate if children use the computer.)

Alejandro Caballero Stephen ~ heehee I've already replied (again). I'll take care of that pic right now, because my moderator is sleeping (Its 3am down here).

ouialaraison Hi Alejandro and all,

I bought icomancer with premium content last time it was offered here and I quite like it. It is at the same time practical (if you only use the patterns included in the program) and will save you a lot of time, and fun (if you enjoy crafting your own folders) and will COST you a lot of time.

One little regret though: I wouldn’t mind making some of my “creations” public, but, unless you decide beforehand that what you are designing will be uploaded to the site as well as saved locally, there seems to be no way to do it afterwards. Or am I missing something?
Mar 30 at 5:03am
VLM Can this be used without the cloud connection, just locally? If "yes", can one download additional icons as a simple download, still avoiding any cloudlike connection?
Mar 30 at 5:04am
Bob Clark Message on install - service pack 3 or later only. Install failed. Looks nice but can't be bothered to update computer.
Mar 30 at 6:02am
Stephen Brown Thanks Alejandero. :)
Mar 30 at 6:34am
Val Pope Thank you for this giveaway, but it is such an arduous way just to register an app to change some folders on your computer, since are many other alternatives out there and many are free and free open source. Personally, I do not like to have to make accounts on every app website I am using ... thank God I do not have to.

Thank you again for this giveaway.

Cooler Downloaded the app and was about to install.

Erm... "make an account..."? Thanks, but no thanks. I already have way too many accounts around and I'm in no hurry to make new ones this easily.

Deleted.

Alejandro Caballero ouialaraison ~ Yes! I remember you from the last discount promotion :)

Now, you see, the only way to share your creations is by uploading them when you save them. So, if you uncheck the "Upload" option in the Crafter, your icons and images will be kept locally. That's explained in the manual :)
LAVA SoftWorks Vendor - Mar 30 at 1:27pm
Alejandro Caballero VLM ~ icomancer is a social app. It was designed like that. It has net connections and checks in the core.

Now, as I said to ouialaraison, you have the option to not download the icons and images you create, but that doesn't mean you can't download creatoins by other users :)
LAVA SoftWorks Vendor - Mar 30 at 1:32pm
Alejandro Caballero Cooler ~ You can either run icomancer with no need to create an account :) you just wont be able to download stuff, and that's why this giveaway is important for so many people.

Thurman D Looks interesting
Mar 30 at 3:18pm
Alejandro Caballero Thurman ~ My butt is going to be kicked for what I'm going to say, but... it is a great app! And there's no other like it (~_~)

Miguel Gomez ICOMANCER is announced as a 100% OFF from $11.95 to $0.00 on Sunday, March 31, 2013 and when I went to download it, it is at 25% of $8.95 instead.

This is CLEARLLY FALSE ADVERTISING from BITSDUJOUR or ICOMANCER itself.

WHAT A SHAME!!!

Roger Thomasson @ Miguel Gomez

The 100% icomancer promotion was scheduled for the 30th, not the 31st.
BitsDuJour Admin - Mar 31 at 7:56pm
Alejandro Caballero Miguel: I invite you to visit facebook.com/icomancer ...there you'll see the notifications about the promo being yesterday (30th) and not today (31st).
LAVA SoftWorks Vendor - Mar 31 at 8:18pm
Miguel Gomez My apology to BitsDuJour and Icomancer for the comment I sent yesterday regarding FALSE ADVERSING.

After I sent the comment, I realized that I was a day late when trying to get Icomancer.

Sincerely, I am sorry.
Apr 1 at 7:04am
Alejandro Caballero Don't worry. By the way: did you get the coupon code I've sent to your email?
LAVA SoftWorks Vendor - Apr 1 at 9:12am
Miguel Gomez Thank you Alejandro Caballero.

I received the coupon code from you.

Thanks again.
