Well, not necessarily lazy, but disadvantaged when it comes to classicer classic Amiga stuff. I'm looking for PNG versions of the older floppy disk and hard drive icons for Workbench. I want to use them on my sites, dh0.info and df0.info (I wanted to use disk.info, but it was and is still taken.) I can convert almost any graphic format you can provide.
What's special about these sites is that they are both exactly the same. There's just some simple mod_rewrite trickery in the httpd.conf which outputs the differing icon and favicon.ico files. I would like to amass a collection of icons from the various revisions of WB and have it randomly display the respective icons. With a little JavaScript, I could even make the icons click-able :-)

LOL you sir are an Amiga freak. I love it!! You mean the old 3.1 icons or 1.3?

heheh Thanks :-) I'm looking for the 1.3 and 2.0 style icons.

I just made some changes to the Rewrite code on the sites. Now they randomly pick between OS3.9 and OS1.3 DF0: icons, and OS3.9 and OS2.x DH0: icons.
It's random, so that doesn't necessarily mean that subsequent refreshes will load a new icon. Also, the favicon.ico does not change as I found in practice that the browser (at least Firefox) seems to ignore the change.
Again, both sites are nothing more than static HTML with some Apache mod_rewrite coding. I'm learning to hate/love regular expressions :-)
