Nice Icons required for PCMCIA CF & USB Stick

Peter · 09 March 2009, 15:29

I use Classic Workbench and I really like Magic Workbench... I know that it restricts the types of icons I can use but there is always a trade off I guess...

I was wondering if anyone who shares the same set up has any nice icons they would consider sharing for usb devices like memory sticks and for PCMCIA Compact flash cards... at present when ever I use one of these devices it is only greeted on screen with the standard floppy disk icon which although it is very nice I am sure can be improved upon - just wondered what anyone else used...

If anyone could put anything in the zone I would be grateful...

there are some great glow icon packages available on aminet that have nice looking pcmcia & usb icons ...just do a search on aminet and have fun browsing through all the cool looking icons

I can only see a very limited number of glow icons - most of them don't appear under my installation of Classic Workbench, which is OS3.1 - new icons seem to appear a bit better...

Yes there are a number of icon sets on Aminet - I will have look... but just in case anyone has already gone down this road... if you do have any nice individual icons for the two devices I mentioned I would be grateful if you give me a shout... or zone them... cheers.

I'm sure I have them somewhere on my HD..i'll give her a look & get back to you..in the mean time I'm not sure if 3.1 will allow you to use glow icons ..think you need 3.5 or 3.9

I really like Kens Icons but again they are for OS3.5 and OS3.9.

Yes - those are a bit special, I like those as well... however as you say not suitable for my set up...

I have looked through quite a number of icons on Aminet and other websites for older style icons and although there are still some nice ones around the use of USB and PCMCIA devices on Amiga's is quite new so no old icon packages contain icons for CF cards or memory sticks...

I am not skilled enough to make them (but you guessed that...) so that's why I though I would try to beg some...
