OK, I finally got around to making these :blush:

Over 60 icons along with PNG templates to make your own file types.

(The templates are included to enable you to make icons for your own personal use.

You are not allowed to distribute any new icons you make from the templates without my permisson).

(Not all the icons are shown in the screenshot).

Great work! One suggestion though, I would be nice if different files of the same type had different colors. Like RAR and ZIP if the background where the text is was purple it would be easier to tell what type of file it is when you have a bunch of them in a folder.

Keep up the great work my friend!!

I tried that. But if I was doing different colours to tell the difference between file types I'd have had to have done it for them all (images, video etc.).

They didn't look good. Too multicoloured (Can't imagine me ever saying that :whistle: ).

Also when I started to do different colours for the images ones there's only so many colours you can use (without them being similar) & trying to keep to the whole iCandy Junior look it just didn't work. For example for the images file types I'd have had to use 12 different colours, trying to make sure they weren't similar (blue can be simliar to purple for example) & trying to make sure the colours were 'iCandy' colours.

I also thought about using different images within the file types. e.g. different pictures for different image file types, stuff like that.

But it was too much work & I don't have that kind of time.

(I might have got round to releasing them next Christmas :blush: )

I know I can't please everyone, & in the end I had to decide on what worked with the colours & images I was using :)
