I'm not too keen on the "trash" icon, mainly because it doesn't make
its
purpose very clear.

At present, it looks just like a can of ReactOS.

It's un-necessary to have the ReactOS logo on every icon, especially the
trash (what are you trying to say?! lol)

Aside from that, I really like the other 2 icons. I think the middle one
would suit applications with no icon of their own, etc. best, as "My
Computer" obviously would look better with some sort of relevant icon.

And finally, the unknown document icon does the job well :)

Sorry for the criticism, just thought I'd offer some (helpful?) advice. Nice
work in any case!

Dear ReactOs-Team,

first of all i have to tell you that you make a great job. Go on with it.

Unfortunately i have no skills in programming, but in computergraphics.
Of course the programming is now more important than the design. So i think
that you
dont pay the design much attention now. But in this point i can help you -
if
you want.

I started to make a new icon set for ReactOs (click on the link). I tried to
make it different from
Windows, but not too different. Just enough to see a difference, but also to
understand immediately
what the icons stand for, if you know Windows. They look very serious and
have
not that
"colorful-mainstream-children-windows-xp" design...   :-)

Notice: The icon for the unknown file types are changed right now by me. As
you
can see in the forum on the website, there were advices for a better icon.
I´ll
follow them.

If you want, take a look. There are just three on the website. If you dont
like
them, i will stop
designing more. If you do like them, i will go on with the work.

Of course they are all for free. Here is my eMail, if you are interested:
