One more bonus folder.

Icon 79 (iPod Folder)

Tonight I am running behind, as seems to be my habit of late and I still have not come up with any clever ideas for the Control Panel folder. So I have decided to knock out another Bonus folder icon and, because I can, I am going to do it with almost no new elements.

I know that not everyone has an iPod but many do, and if you are just one of those people who likes to organize files you could use this for Apple AAC files or M4P file. So here we go; this one will be easy.
 

Step 1:

We will start with the standard open folder.

Step 2:

Now we take the Wave file, and using the perspective tool we slant it back and place it inside the folder.

Step 3a:
 
Now we take the Green Music note from our My Music folder and place it in front of the folder.

 
Step 4:

Now we move a copy of our iPod icon in front of the folder, shrinking it a bit to fit.

Step 6:

Last we ad a subtle reflection of the back of the iPod in the face of the folder.

With a bit of luck we will get the Control Panel folder tomorrow. Check back in then to share in the fun
