Hi All,
Thanks to those of you who made comments about my Tango icon set. I've thought carefully about all the comments I've received, and I'm most of the way through the issues raised. I've revised idb_std_large.bmp, idb_std_small.bmp, floppy.ico, mycomputer.ico, netdrive.ico, netdrive2.ico, shortcut.ico, dxdiag, notepad, and wordpad.
I'm not sure what the solution is, but the print preview icon in idb_std_large.bmp seems to be a bit difficult to figure out. I think the problem is that the magnifying glass obscures the printer behind it so much that it's hard to tell it's a printer. At the same time, the base of the magnifying glass is hard to tell apart from the printer body.
Perhaps a small high contrast 1-pixel border around the base of the magnifying glass could separate the two.
I still have one or two icons that I haven't yet touched: mydocs.ico, certwatermark.bmp, oic_hand.ico, iexplore, but I thought I'd share what I have while it's fresh in people's minds.

Let me know if you have more comments.
I really like how notepad and wordpad are now visually distinct. You did a good job.
Thanks, Scott Ritchie
