Thanks Cyndie. Yeah, I tend to beat myself up when I get like this. Sorry about that.

Thanks, Uvah.

It doesn't get better than this

Awesome!

Thank you Elsius Saint and Mirsguy.

The package is getting there slowly, but it is getting there. With any luck I'll have the folders completely finished soon, as I'd been waiting for my graphics tablet to turn up. Now I have it (hassah!) there are a couple of folder icons I can look at getting done. Hopefully the wait will have been worth it. In the meanwhile, I'm finishing working on a Recycle Bin icon, which I'm very happy with so far.

That bin looks great. One small tip: the gloss on the front of the can does not match up with the gloss on the lid.

You've definitely got some talent! Keep it up.

*cough*work in progress*cough*.

Cheers Mirsguy!

Pardon me, but your talent is showing.

Cheers, Wiz!

To be honest, I'm stumped as to why these are turning out so well. I may be far from the days when I just slapped a heavy Bevel & Emboss on stuff and called it done, but these are way beyond what I normally turn out. The only possible explanation I can think of, is that I used to just make icons for myself. These are for the community, so I've had to kick things up a notch (or five) for me to be happy with them. Plus they're being made to go with an existing Windowblind, and I don't want to besmirch Cyndie's hard work with inferior icons.

  This is gonna be one killer IP! 

Thanks Cyndie. It really means a lot to me that you think it's good (so far).

I love the clapping emoticon. It makes me laugh every time.

Baited breath on waiting

Thanks for the compliment though, cardinalsyn_25. Incidentally, is that a Super Meat Boy apple? What a wonderfully surreal idea!

There is nothing as nice to look at when a person is willing to show there handy work.  Excellent work Starcandy, this is sure to be a crowd pleaser. 

Thanks, Philly! It would be nice if they're a crowd pleaser, but I've learned not to expect. I keep smiling that way.
