    Last time I tried the preview seemed to have trouble working. If the problem happens with your computer tell me and I will try and fix it.

    Those are nice concepts but you really need take advantage of 32 bit masks. You should mask the screen shots in PhotoShop. And I think you can make them alot bigger. But nice work other than that.



    thanks for all the complements

    I think I understand. I feel really bad asking you all these questions. Anyway, I do have a few more if you don't mind. You made the shadow yourself I'm assuming? How did you go about doing it? And umm, oh gosh I feel stupid.....where's the masking option in photoshop? last question is, how did you make the sides so smooth? I always get jaggies no matter what, I know these are stupid questions but I just started using photoshop.

    P.S. THANK YOU!!!

    I worked(practiced) alot last night, I think I am getting the idea. Some of tose above questions still remain, but the one I am really having trouble with is getting transparancy to work under Icoographer. It seems like everytime I transfer the shadow part over it become solid again. I can't figure it out.

    Yeah, great icons Mike I think I will use the blue Carracho server one for my client : it is so more 'Aqua'



    [quote] sets of unique color variations on system icons (without other gaudy modifications)<hr></blockquote>



    yes, I fully agree with that.



    And what about :

    2 sets of installers folders icons (1 for OS 9 apps installers and one for OS X)

    1 folder for fonts

    1 favorites icon (don't like the heart at all)

    1 stylish launcher icon (something with 'start' on it or a start button) to access to apps aliases

    1 folder network apps

    1 folder design apps

    1 folder games

    1 folder utilities

    1 folder office apps

    1 folder demos

    1 folder downloads

    the carracho server icon is great. I store only a few icons in my dock, and they are mostly blue themed: the Finder, Mail.app, iTunes, AIM and IE. BUT i used to have this orange aqua icon, but now blue icon.



    PS&lt;&lt;&gt; I got a little shock after licking the icon on my screen. ouch

    Michaelm-I love your icons! I'm so jealous of anyone that can draw...



    If you had the time I was wondering if you can come up with one for Age of Empires II. Just crossed swords or anything medevial would be great-the games icon doesn't show up at all for me.

    That's a good question actually. So far I haven't received any over at Xicons or I would have posted them. Anyone willing to whip up a set?
