Revenge of the dogcattle: ClarusX2005

Since the response to last week's discussion of Clarus and her dogcow relatives was so overwhelmingly pro-dogcow, I thought I'd share one of my favorite little tools that lets you bring back the dogcow in OS X. ClarusX, now ClarusX2005 for Tiger, is a little haxie that combines some simple scripts and system images to let you change the icons in Page Setup. You can choose from the traditional dogcow, a modernized dogcow on the OS X paper icon, a variety of aquafied dogcattle, or, um, Steve Jobs' head. If you get tired of your dogcow, you can always switch back to the appropriately named "BoringGuy". The current version is only for Tiger, older versions should still be available via Versiontracker.
