Icons
OK, I'm new to the icon making business but I have made a few for myself.
Theres only a couple that I think you will find useful and some of theme are personalised, for example the my computer icon is actually my computer down to the desktop wallpaper.
Anyway, just see what you think.

I would welcome any comments, hope I can help.

I would dim the white highlights on the recycle bin as it nears the bottom. Computer just looks like a bland old box and monitor from 2000.. how about a cool drawing for that too? The Globe? I guess it delivers what it promises, but it doesn't really look "cool". Firefox? No way. They make their own program, and the crystal-like one you are trying to make just isn't good.

OK, if you read the first post the my computer icon is.. my computer, and i can improve that easily.
the globe - is a globe, thats all there is to it really.It not an icon on its own its to be used with other icons.
The reclycle bin i will do as you sugested.
But the main reason for posting was to find out if people liked that style and if I should make a set.

The whole concept is horribly wrong. Somewhere around i saw a thread with link to a blog post that explains why some icons are bad, and how good icons should be drawn.

i have kept the same disk as in the submitted ones and also gone for the logo rather than just text (eg Cd-RW)
This is just a quick idea. Hope I can be useful to the project
