Description
Yaaaay my first Daily Deviation!!!
Thanks a lot to `jcroxas for suggesting it and `Hardrockangel for the feature!
And special huge thanks to everyone for your comments and faves! Thank you!!
Finally done a retro-inspired icon set!
Inspired by the 8bit graphics of the retro consoles of our childhood, namely the famous Nintendo's NES or Sega Megadrive, I wanted something... vintage and pixelized.
This icon set was very simple to create: a grid divided into squares, then fill them with the colors of your choice, and voilà! Easy as pie (and minimalistic)! Oh yeah! : D
This icon set is compatible with Windows and also with OS X, both corresponding versions are included into the package. Choose the corresponding version depending of your operating system!
As usual, feel free, and don't hesitate at all to share these icons with people that you really like, but please, please do not use these icons for ANY commercial purposes! : )

I really like the icon set and I think it's quite an original idea. However, I think that some icons could make use of some shading still, or some bolder colours. For instance: the animal icons look great already, but I think they still need a bit of shading to make them stand out a bit more. Same goes for the colour palette, which I could only identify clearly when zooming in. The yellow Adobe-icons also seems to merge a bit too much colour-wise, since the shadows and highlights on it are to closely related to the main colour. I'd suggest darkening up the shadow colour, going to a more orange-y undertone, whilst brightening up the lighter colour a bit more.
Al in all, it's a really nice set. But I think you worked a bit too much with pastel-colours where you could have made use of darker, bolder colours.

Wow! Thanks for your constructive and very helpful comment! : )
Indeed, the points you've highlighted in your comment are true; these icons lack of shading, resulting in a too much flat and plain visual appearance, making them less noticeable when displayed as desktop icons. And I admit the colors should be more vivid, are you agree? ; )
On this, thanks again for the feedback! I really appreciate!!

You're welcome! And it's mostly some small tweaks that you can make to the set, overall it's a really nice one!
