Would it be worth the time?
Published on July 1, 2005 By mormegil In OS Customization

While I was doing the Icon-A-Day Icons I realized how many Icons had been added to IconPackager over the last few years. Every once and a while I see screenshots of people using my FauxS-XP Icons or the LaST Icons. It has been some time for me since I have looked at them our updated them. I am wondering if it would be worth my while to do so.  
 
I have 4 colors of LaST Icons, that I could finish up and post. I would have to create something like 15 new Icons to make them IP 3 Complete.

Also The FauxS-X Icons are getting a bit dated. But with a bit of work I could go through and update them to include all the IP 3 Icons, as well as make sure they all have 128x128 version.

I don't want people to think I am just trying to get more downloads, or trying to avoid doing anything new. The Icon-A-Day Pack is just freshly posted and It will be about a month more before I can post the Atlas Suite. So this came to mind.

More or less I am asking to see if the demand is there, and if so witch packs would be most requested for a update? Let me know what you think?

Mormegil,

First of all I really like your work. You are the best. Of course I would like to see a update of the icons.

I want to ask If the Atlas suite will be a Premium or a free one. Do you have already got some screenshots???

Anyway keep up the good work!!!!

Atlas is a suite of Icons I started about 3 years ago, and never had a chance to finish, they are pritty simple, and monocrome, so I would like to do a matching skin and wall to go with them, hense the delay. Not to mention with IP3 I now need to do like 15 more Icons if I want the pack to be complete. I am going to do a blog about Atlas, soon I think, and it will have plenty so screenshots Im sure.

It looks like everyone has the same opinion... we love your icons. An update would be awsome. I love the new IP V3. Thanks for making my computer look a hell of a lot cooler.

Definately, I use last and some updating would be welcomed!

Just another person that would love a update on ALL your icon packs. When do you plan on releasing those updates?
Please release all 4 of the color variation of Last icons.
on Jul 07, 2005
Yes, please and thank you.
on Jul 09, 2005
Please, Please UPDATE!!! I love your work!
on Jul 09, 2005
Yes! To all of them! Please!? Thank you!!

Seems to be unanimous, so far. After deliberating for all of 1 second I must agree.
Would love to see updates and look forward to seeing more of your work. Work? Hell, its nothing less than fine art. (to me anyway)

You don't have to ask IF we want them, Paul! That's how good they are.

I would personally love to see the other color variations of the Last suite. I love the pack as it is now, but the color doesn't fit extremely well with most skins and desktops, so it would be interesting to have other color choices. Cuz, ya know, your icons rock out.

May I request 2 more generic icons for each pack ?

Burning Software (Data and/or Music) and nice notebook icons like there where in Orion ?

Could You consider generic bluetooth and cellphone icons also ?

Sorry this comment is way late, but I just came across this thread. Anyway, yeah, more icons for any of those sets would rule... I've been using your icons for years, ever since I switched from a Mac to a PC and wanted to do something to make Windows look a little nicer.

One thing I have trouble finding out there are good replacement icons for applications themselves (not the files they create). Like someone mentioned, better Office icons, Adobe icons, game icons, or things like Ad-Aware or Media Player that have pretty ugly icons by default. That way they would blend in with the others. I know that's asking a lot, though.

Keep up the fantastic work and bets of luck whatever you decide to do.
