Framed (maybe?)
These are in all of my team/school themes, but I have never done
a standard theme. My vision is an illumine sized complete icon
collection. Anyways, leave some feedback good or bad.

In my sports themes I use a carbon fiber background.
It looks real nice, IMO.
Any suggestions?

I like the brushed look, like what is on the pic now...personally. But a background is easy to change.

Look like a ton of work making those icons, I love the look. Very cool.

Actually, most of them were pretty easy. Just using the magic wand and selector tools in PS to delete the background. Some I made from scratch. Some were a pain in ***.

^lmao, sure pretty easy. I have made a ton of similar icons for hockeys themes (removing background) and for me, they where the hardest to make, some taking 20-30 minutes to make for a single icon. But the bottom line is they look awesome.

Thanks. I guess you can appreciate what a pita some of these were.

um. interesting...
i like the idea allot. it will give the user more of the wallpaper to look at. the only concern that i have is most people here only get themes and don't own photoshop, there fore you will have a lot of icon requests.
i actually really like it and i cant wait to see any updates you come out with.Follow me on Twitter: EddieLeonard - - - - - - - -If i have helped in anyway at all, Please click the "Thanks!" button

@ rpgpromaster
That was how this idea started. I wanted to see more of my wallpaper. So I used illumine sized icons then made them with transparent backgrounds.
