Christmas for Mac users means seasonal eye-candy.

TUAW has posted about Sn?ɬ? (a snow storm on your Desktop), MacLampsX (Christmas light for your Desktop) and Christmas icons at the Icon Factory.

Mail.app can easily join the party.

Changing Apple Mail‘s Dock icon is easy. There are lots of different stamps for Mail.app, but you are not restricted to those.

You could use one of the icons from the Icon Factory, or a Christmas icon from ResExcellence or one of the Classic Christmas icons from Apple’s OS X Downloads.

For me, Christmas in recent years as meant (amongst other things) another instalment of the Lord of the Rings. So my Mail.app is looking like Isildur’s Account (from the LOTR icon set):

We will have to make do with Narnia this year, a fable not an epic. Oh, well.
