Creative Design

Hello everyone,

I'm new here but i created some icons i think you might like.

I talked to JBurton in the IRC chat and he said you needed new icons for the system preferences. I created these two icons in the original style of BeOS but updated them significantly. The original icon is in the corner for reference, let me know what you think.

... Hi everybody!

At first - excuse me for a bad english. So... what's all about - just a try to make a skin for Haiku, enough usable at a low screen resolution. It's not a secret, that not everybody uses giant monitors with 1600x1200

That's why i've tried to make a skin with look-and-feel of original BeOS. Of course, it's not 100% original, but I wanted to compile many ideas together (maybe someone'll find similarity with classic MacOS in headers)...

It looks great on LCD or at well-focused CRT with a matrox/3dlabs (wich have a good RAMDAC) even on a high resolution. But on a some old monitors this image may look blurry'cos it contains some pixel-sized details and it requires a sharp monitor.

Whatever, it's just a first version... i'll try to improve it and draw menus/radiobuttons and so on...

Please, keep in mind that I'm not a programmer 8)
But I'm drawing gui elements, icons and buttons for windows applications...

Let's look at the beOS style...

look at the way the beos traveled from DRx to R5:
What can we see? the look start from a simple 2D style to a very more worked nice little 3D one. from nice to nicer, wright ?
