06 Dec A final teaser of things to come.

As the holidays are approaching, I have decided that I am better off spending a few days not working in the year and taking the time to perfect my icons and the details in them. I will be blogging a bit less, and I probably won’t release much, if anything in the rest of 2007. But January 2008 will certainly be the date of the extended Orion iconset, and another set that I am working on in my spare time. I decided to show that off to whet your appetite for the holidays and the new year. Work in progress!

Apart from a good system-replacement set, I will release a set of icons in a theme of my first portfolio website; the ‘forgotten mainframe’; overgrown electronics from damp rainforests on alien worlds. I don’t want to make the same mistake as I did with Orion, so sound off in the comments if there is any motivation for this to be a system set instead of just a small icon set.

  1. Ooh, I LOVE these. I, at least, would definitely be interested in a system set like this.

  2. wow. very cool. those are gorgeous. I’d love to see a 512 px set of system icons!

  3. please make this a system wide icon set, this set is fantastic.

  4. Oh man, those are awesome man. I love the level of detail on the folders. I don’t know how usable they will be in a long term sense, but they are quite unique and definitely eye catching. Its a shame theres no method of theming Leopard, as a full system with this overgrown/forgotten look would look really slick.

  15. I’d like to have all icons in dock like this. iTunes, iPhoto etc. It would be great. And texture for grass dock…
