[icons] Black System

Hi,

i am playing around with some ideas to make a "dark style" icon replacement set which will
cover almost every system icon plus some application icons as well.

Some of the icons i already posted will of course be in the set. I hope i can fix some
of the problems they have before i release again- i guess i should have had a little more patience..
Its a learning process for me- sry...

Would be nice of you to tell me your opinions, make suggestions etc...
IŽll post my progress in this thread from time to time.

Adress Book- should i make a default folder icon out of this one ?!

They look great, I especially like the VLC icon. The only thing that might be wrong are the rings on the Address Book, other than that, there great smile_thumbup

yikes Those are amazing! I would keep it up.smile_thumbup The only change I would make is to make the address book more glossy, to match the other two.

I disagree. I think the Stamp could lose a little of its gloss.

The VLC icon needs it because it is plastic but the address book doesn't. It's a matte material.

Not bad, would like to see more.

These are great. Although I wouldn't gloss the address book, it seems that the VLC cone is using a different shade of grey. It looks darker than the other two.

Wow, amazing! The address book could lose those hole punches before the spine, mine doesn't have those...

I agree with binderskagnaes, but the 3D look is still cool. cool I don't think the address book would make a good folder though.

Re: [icons] Black System

Everything posted looks great so far!

However, don't forget about the wallpaper! Instead of Aqua Blue, why not... "Aqua Black?"

Re: [icons] Black System

Also, for the folder icons, why not include these?

Re: [icons] Black System

Yea maybe i could make something similar. The only thing is, this "frontview", its like
default leopard folders are, i hope i can find a more interesting type of folder/perspective.
