The black face, is related to (lossless audio codecs) and the white face is (lossy codecs, and or general file type related icons, playlist's etc...) And color makes it distinguishable face color, and overall icon color.

Because I couldn't wait until you release the finished set, I already made my own based on your "beta" versions, which leads to my nexts question: As many people here seem to be quite anxious for these icons, i wanted to ask if i could post my set here? Of course the full credits belong to you, as the icons are heavily based an yours, as I said.

HOWEVER you can NOT release them until you get Luceos' permission to release his logo design with your design. But a screen shot, would be nice for the time being.

(And his icons are better anyway, mine are only quick&dirty... Finished them in 1 hour today) OK, here's the sreenshot:

If I am not mistaken, the icons are made for the usage in docks... Furthermore, there are only 2 icons in the pack, but to cover all filetypes many more are needed...

And I have to say, the iconset from Luceo is really nice instead!

Once I am completely done I will make .ico's out of them, and post them for everyone to enjoy.

The graphic designer who made them has skill, but the icons themselves show very little style. -------------------- (atrix\|(fb2k->e-mu 0404 usb\|audio 8 dj))->hd280\|jvc ha-fx35-b

He's pretty busy, so I guess he will post them when he finishes them. I'll patiently wait until then.

Never made icons either and I have 2 left hands when it comes to art. But you can probably open the current foobar files in icon workshop and see how they are made or at least what they contain.
