Once more we find new homes for the icons we have done already.

| Icon 19 (My Network) Now we move on to our My Network icon. I would like to think of some really cleaver convention for this, but I have not had any luck so far. What I, and most other icon makers seam to do, is a computer with a globe or two computers together. Since we have a neat looking globe I figured we go with it one more time. |

| Step 1:
We will get started by copying our My Computer icon, and shrinking it down about 80%. .jpg) |
Step 2: Now we Copy our Internet icon over, and shrink it down and place to the lower right of our guide box. I also delete the cord and its shadow. .jpg) |
Step 3: Now I make a new cord, leaving our plug on the globe and running off behind the Computer. I do this with the Mesh Fill tool. .jpg) |
| Step 4: I pull a shadow off the new cord, and break it apart. Then I crop it down to make sure it looks right, using the Node Edit tool. .jpg) |

This is an important icon, though it was pretty simple to
make. Tomorrow we will move on to the Web folder. |
