Hi there!

Here you are my grab:
ftp://de.aminet.net/pub/aminet/pix/wb/WinUAEcustWB1.jpg

I personally don't like the idea of being "colonized" by Linus styled icons: I feel losing something...
I really like PNG icons with their alpha channel possibility but they aren't truly amiga icons (at the moment no 2nd click state!).

So I've started drawing amiga 100% icons by myself.
Have a look at the work in progress with MIME type:

Basic idea is to have 16:9 icons instead of vertical shaped icons because:
- file names are orizontal and nearly always they're longer than icons
- I think 16:9 landscape monitor are the way to go
- there's more space for writes on the icons
- the window file reorder function can make a better layout
- and... I personally like the results!

Bye now: back to drawing icons process!
