If you're a user of Mac OS X, you might like these icons I created. 
Of course, they're totally free, as well as being free of any viruses, spyware and adware. A variety of rare and odd vintage axes, including Jaco's Bass of Doom, McCartney's psychedelic Rick, and Bootsy's star bass. If you like, you can download the set here, they're the third selection on the page: http://www.appleswitcher.com/icons.php
Here's a reduced-sized picture of the full set: http://www.appleswitcher.com/music/i...uitaricons.jpg
Hope you like 'em!

I'm glad you folks like 'em!
I don't have a Windows computer (so I have no way to test this), but I think I've learned how to convert the icons to Windows format. Is there anybody willing to test this single icon file and see if it works in XP? http://www.appleswitcher.com/music/i...gs/Airline.zip
If it works I'll be happy to convert the the whole set, but I'll probably need to find somewhere else to host them (the originals are on a Mac website).

Hmm, a Bass VI – why didn't I think of that? Might have to update the set. Are there any other vintage classics that I missed?
A Bongo, hmm? Do I actually have to look at one to create the icon?  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
