Description
In this version:The handle's shape changed and added shadow.
This is my first icon, perhaps it is not that perfect from the view of pro icon makers, at least I've tried my best.
The title sounds all - a simple toolbox.
Folder and PNG. format.
***Don't forget to comment of fav****
Enjoy.

I think it is "Light Wooden Dock" somewhere in dA.

YES! Now I can load all my heavy tools inside ( ^_^)^_^ )~hug
Hmmm... Shadow looks good to me. I think you have to be careful not to make the bottom borders of the box blend with the shadow (same color/shade). Some people highlight the objects edge along the shadow edge (a little like you did on the top edge) so it stands out from the ground.
Only things that look a little odd to me is there seems to be at least three vanishing points and the handle is not centered, I only notice this if I magnify the image. But those imperfections make it look great too.

Very good quality icon.
May I suggest that you make the handle have a flat top like a heavy duty toolbox you would find a hardware store? The rainbow shaped handle can be painful in use (^_^).

Many thanks for the suggestion. I've changed everything and feel free to download.
Tell me if the shadow looks odd, I found that quite hard to create shadow for mac os icons. Any tips from the floor?

For a first icon, quite good I must say. Two suggestions:
1. add some shadow. if you want to go Apple, light source is on top
2. create the 16x16, rather than scale down
But hey, I couldn't do better

Mind to tell what is 16 x 16 for?

Have a look at [link]
Hobiconer has several containers for several icon sizes.
You can try to scale down your 512x512 image to 256x256 and 128x128 with little loss of quality.
But most of the time you'll need a different image for 16x16 because it's just too much scaling down.
Many Mac users love using the 32x32, so that too might need a separate take.
Just ideas...
