Elleair Icons are all original icons, in a 3D “Copland-esque” style. However, unlike the other icon sets that merely place the application’s logo onto a 3D folder, Elleair Icons are a true original.
There really isn’t a theme to this icon set at all. I simply drew icons of hardware items I saw around me. Thus, this icon set includes the following hardware items:
Zip Drive (Flat View)
Zip Drive (Side View)
SyQuest EZ 135 Drive
Apple External Hard Drive
Gravis MouseStick II
Nikon LS 1000
Portable CD-ROM Drive
FWB Hammer PE 2GB External HD
ProDirect PDC 2400
Tsunami 1280MB Hard Drive
However, also included in this icon set are a few “extra” icons that could not be associated with any other icon theme. They are:
Happy Macintosh
Scared Macintosh
Sad Macintosh
National Pencil Sharpener
....and of course the Elleair Tissue Box that inspired this set.
These icons are FreeWare! This means that you are free to use them and give them to your friends at no cost whatsoever! You are also encouraged to upload these icons to any BBS’s, Online Services, Internet FTP or WWW sites as well! If you use them, please drop me some email at, <inaka@cap.or.jp>, and tell me so! If there is a nice response to this set, you can look forward to Volume II! (However, I retain all the rights to this icon set, and this documentation must accompany the Elleair Icons when distributed.)
If you need an icon set for your yet to be released FreeWare, ShareWare, or Commercial product, please contact me by email with your request.
Sincerely,
