Excellent set of icons you put together here mavisXP!

The link to the crystalMX homepage seems to be down, perhaps we can let us know when it's back up.

Nice set but with the dozens of new icons you should have had "briefcase" "settings" "log off" and "shutdown" for non-XP users ...

Yeah - sorry about the homepage being down - my host disabled my site because I exceeded 3GBs of transfer on Friday They've been rather slow about re-enabling it ... lol. Anyway, I'll post back when it's online again, should be sometime today.

I opened the package in IconPackager and my jaw dropped! Oh wow! You actually included 56x56 icons for those who use 76x76 rez! Gosh! I am SO happy, I could hug you!!

Maybe you can help me with a problem then, I have been trying to increase my icon rez. to 96, but the right-side of the start panel does not show properly. Do you know what resolution Windows XP scales the icons down to? Thank you in advance! LOL

thanks for the comments, guys - I appreciate it!

As for my website http://www.mavisxp.com I apologize for the downtime. My host disabled my site a week ago because I exceeded my daily bandwidth allowance (due to releasing this icon set, lol) and after they re-enabled it, they apparently messed up the DNS stuff - one of the servers has my site listed incorrectly and the other has no record of me at all! ( lol ... Anyway I've just sent them a support request and things should be back to normal soon - so again, I apologize. As soon as it's back to normal though, I recommend you check it out if you want all the other icons in addition to this IP theme.

Nice icons. But why does a lot of them looks like the icons from Everaldo?

Hey guys - just wanted to let you know that I am in the process of updating this theme, I should be done by tomorrow ... Here are a list of the changes I'm making:

- added 256 and 16 color versions for all icons for Win98/2K users, sizes 48/32/24/16
- added 56x56 format for ALL start panel icons for WinXP
- added icons for Word, Excel, Frontpage, Access, Outlook and OGG music files

Quite a few changes, I hope you guys like it when it's done! Anyway, I'll be finished by tomorrow and will upload it as soon as it's ready.

OK, the theme has been updated and the following changes made:

- added shutdown, logoff, suspend, start panel, and My Briefcase icons for Win98 users
- added 256 color format for all icons
- added 56x56 format for ALL start panel icons, to provide better scaling in WinXP
- added file type icons for Word, Excel, Powerpoint, .asp, .ttf, and .sys

I guess that should pretty much complete the set. All major file type icons are now represented, as are all system icons. Enjoy the set!

Yeah, I never actually took the file down, I just changed the link on my downloads page to direct people to chooseyourvoice.com, where the pack was (generously) hosted for a week or two. However, since the mirror seems to be dead (??) I have changed the downloads page link back to the icon pack on my own server. Hopefully I don't exceed my bandwidth again ...

So far this month, my downloads page has recieved almost 2000 hits, and my three shell packs have been dl'd a total of about 3200 times. That means that I'll most likely exceed my bandwidth now that the main icon package is again available from the downloads page. In other words, my site will most likely go off line again.

So, can anyone help me by mirroring the main icon package??
