Description
Drawn by hand in pencil on notebook paper (intended medium by the way), scanned in, and made into icons. Only touchups done were sharpening, erasing stray marks not part of the icon, resizing, etc.Icons are in the following sizes (one .ico file includes all three sizes):
- 16x16
32x32
48x48
in the following bit depths:
- 8-bit
16-bit
32-bit (XP only)
Also included are 128x128 .PNG files for porting (see Creative Commons license) which should work as-is in most *nix GUIs.
If I'm missing an icon that this set needs, please let me know.

I really love this idea, but I'm having some difficulties using these in Windows7.

I admit, I'm not too great with a pencil, but I wasn't going for realism either. I intended for it to be a bit sloppy (mostly to save myself frustration), but also to emphasize the hand-drawn effect. Still, it does leave a bit to be desired even to myself. For example, the shading and scale are far too inconsistent. I did want some minor inconsistencies, but flipping through the finished product on screen, some icons are so different shading and scale wise that it is more of an acquired taste for my friends and I than I would like.
