Well, I've started work on a network icon. Or maybe it's the Network Error icon. I don't know. Anyway, it's crappy so far. I know it's not right ... but I can't figure out what's wrong. Is it the color? Or the style?

i like it i could never do that!!

Gruzz Profil: Moderator | You want the background to be transparent then? It's best to ask the original maker of these icons. | |

Gruzz Profil: Moderator | Since there's a shadow underneath some of the icons, the result won't be that good. That's why it's best to contact the original creator of these icons. If he has released them somewhere, they've probably already got a transparent background. | |
uttaresh The Penguin Master Profil: Penguin Pro | Nah, it should be pretty easy to recreate the shadows. Remove the white and shadows, remake the shadows using either Blending Options or a simple Gaussian Blur.
I won't do it, though, as I don't have permission from the author to reproduce his/her icons. Sorry. ---------------

ghostnatyphon Who Dares Wins Profil: Penguin Pro | Maybe just draw lots of lines with a hard brush, then radial blur? I haven't got Photoshop installed yet, so I'm not sure what blur I'd want to use... (only really familiar with Gaussian blur ) ---------------

how do you get the lines effect ?
|
First create a purple background. With White selected as the foreground colour, go to Filter>>Noise>>Add Noise. Click OK. Go to Filter>>Blur>>Radial Blur.
Now there are two options in Radial Blur: Spiral and another one I don't remember. One of the two gets that effect.  ---------------
