My latest (W.I.P). This time a "still in the development stage" folder images/icons. So far the images aren't much but hopefully some suggestions put forth can drive me to gain some inspiration. Colours are a bit off also, C&C welcome (and a bottle of white wine) would also be an added bonus. :)

probably just me being stupid, but where would you use these? are they like thread markers?
anyway, they're nice, altho like you say the colours don't quite sit right yet. i personally prefer subtler colours for this sort of thing, as that way they work with most styles/skins. but that's just me. :)

Yeah, I have to agree the colours arent that great. I'll be opting for more subtle colours when I get around to finishing them off. They will probably end up as Forum Icons. Or scaled down and used as icons/intergrated in other images (userlinks menu, logo).
Thanks for the comments Elsie. :)
Edit: Here's a sample of slightly modified variants. http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/1930/glassfoldersfinal9xo.png

I'm debating whether to release them as standalone images (forum icons) or design a set of buttons, ranks etc to compliment them. *ponders*
Thanks for the comments, I thought the multi-coloured variants were off. Sometimes multi-coloured images work, sometimes they won't. In this case it didn't but I'm stuck in my ways and sometimes find it hard to break out of a routine when it comes to designing.
Anyhow, thanks again for the comments. :)
