Once you find or make the icons you want for the different apps, you can change them with Candybar OR you can copy the icon to the clipboard, select the app in the applications folder of your hard drive by clicking one time on it and then ⌘I (command key and the letter I for Information.) There will be two images for the app- one at the top and one at the bottom of the window. Click on the one at the top and paste the clipboard image there. Some apps may require you to validate with your password, others don't.
I have read on the interwebz that Apple doesn't want you to change some apps' icons. It does something to the update, although I haven't seen that myself. Just thought it was important to give you that disclaimer.
BTW.. you can change folder images in the same manner.
As far as the dock, I use an invisible dock. You can do that with lots of apps or CandyBar. Google "dock skins" and you will have a wide variety to choose from.
Good luck- I hope you post your desktop here once you get it modded. I'd love to see it.

Thank you for the compliment. I enjoy customizing my Macbook Pro.
Good luck.
