  As far as I can tell, Facade provides you will an easy way to put
  color icons on a file/disk/ect...  Using ResEdit you can examine
  the Facade Icons file - note the names associated with each icon.
  Once Facade in in you Sys. Folder & booted, any file/disk/etc..
  that has the SAME name as one of the icons in the icon file will
  now have that icon.  Using ResEdit you can change the names, add
  icons, etc...  

  If you ask me ColorFinder or Sundesk seems to
  do a better job, but Facade allows you to put a different icon
  for your harddrive.  

  Does anyone else know what more Facade is for?
