How can I change my icons from Ubuntu? Is there a website where you can download different color/style icons and from where? THANKS!

Which desktop are you using?

Gnome desktop: http://www.gnome-look.org/

KDE desktop: http://www.kde-look.org/

They probably are interchangeable

Any .png file will work as an icon. Try finding ones with transparant backgrounds. "Google Image Search" is an AWESOME resource!

Customize away! :D

I truthfully don't know which desktop I am using.
Where can I look for icons again?

www.gnome-look.org has been criticized to spread malware.

@TS

Do yourself a favor -- use PNG images directly (no deb files, Ubuntu is gaining popularity and so it's being more insecure though these debs scattered all over the net, use the repositories instead) or there are many icon packs available in the repositories. I don't know what's their name since I'm not on Ubuntu.

If you're using Kubuntu, it's KDE.
