One of your fellow forum members did a new icon, and there might be more coming. It's installed and is called Feline. Thank you to mechbgon.

Zuni - does this mean you would consider user submitted author icons on a case to case basis?

Ok, but if someone (say me for example) created a kickass icon, that fitted in with the general style of the other ones, you'd definitely consider adding it? Nice :)

Shame I have no artistic skills what-so-ever!

Thank you, Zuni, for adding it! Really makes my day, and I hope some of the other Forum folks will like it too!

Thanks for the compliment, GirlFriday!

Snow Patrol, I used Adobe Photoshop 5.0 Limited Edition, which came with a cheap graphics tablet I got. It took me a while to get used to dealing with a .GIF so small that every pixel matters, and I'm still way down on the learning curve with Photoshop LE too. You could try doing a 160x160 .bmp or something, then resample it to final size, but you'll probably still end up doing a little pixel-by-pixel touchup.

Abracadabra 1, thanks to you for the compliment too! I have some ideas rolling around in my head for more icons, hopefully they will fit in with the scheme and make the cut! ;)
