From left to right, top to bottom:

I liked 4,5,6,17,18, 23,24,26,27.

But the most important is the work you invested into these icons. That's what communities are about.

Congratulations :-)

Thanks all of you for your comments ...but the real thing needed is ideas for more Icons! do you have any apps you want Icons made for? any ideas you would like to share?... now is a good time to speak... I'd be happy to incorporate your ideas into my iconpack...

ImageFX, UAE, Sid4Amiga, UADE are the first ones popping into my mind, lacking proper RGBA icons ATM. There are most probably more out there.

Why would UADE need an icon.. no reason to execute from Ambient? :) anyway

Yam, Frogger, Cygnus Editor, ImageFX, Samba, VNC.. some games that work.. Myst, Software Tycoon, Feeble files etc. ?

Hey, thanks for working on the icons!  Don't forget IBrowse, Filer (like dopus), WordsWorth, BenderIRC (think Bender from Futurama), JabberWocky (jabber), SGrab, AmTelnet, MicroDot II, GoldED, MorphED, SnoopDOS, AWeb, ArtEffect, fxPaint, Aladdin, ImageFX, WordPad (simple editor), Hollywood, AmigaWriter, Amplifier (mp3's), AmigaAmp (mp3's), SongPlayer (old mp3 player), an icon to start a toolbar.. More as the ideas come!
Regards,
Targhan

The problem I have with these icons is the same problem I have with any screenshot of MorphOS i've seen; as individual images they look very nice, and clearly a lot of work has gone into them.

As an icon set, though, there is no "theme" to them; its like a totally random set of pictures. For example, the "Glow Icons" look, while not particularily great looking, had a certain consistency to them. The icons I use on OS3.9 are taken from an Atari icon set, and they all have a similar background "glyph" and are of a consistent size.

Keep up the good work, though!

Just my 2p worth  :-D
