Hello there,
In this latest posting for the Cezanne icon theme are a collection of device icons for CD/DVD drives and hard disks.
The hard disk icon particularly is a 'beta' version (I never thought it would be so difficult to think of a vaguely original look for a hard drive icon!! :D). If you like it, or if you think its total c**p, please comment with recommendations.
later.

1. the set is not currently complete and I tend to work on one 'type' of icon, creating them in a batch...this helps to ensure consistency and is just mentally more simple. Until the set is complete, releasing them as 'mimetype' etc enables you to simply extract them into the appropriate folder in your current theme.
2. (the main reason) until the icon set is complete, I'd rather release small packages because I have to distribute anything over 500k from my own web space, whereas kde-look will host anything under this size....this helps to ensure that I don't exceed my bandwidth limit and get charged!!
...so the reason is entirely selfish, for which I apologize. Needless, to say, as soon as I have a set which I think is full enough to constitute an entire 'theme' I will release them as a proper package ready for install.
Hope that explains it.

Also many of your icons go for photographical likeness which I think is lovely. Your HDs are an exception. Perhaps you could use your previous style for them as well. You could have a standard photographic rectangular HD with a window on top, showing a tux, winflag, globe etc... on the top platter through the window. I haven't seen anyone use that concept before for icons so you would still be original.
Cheers,

...I like your 'window' idea - I think I might have a crack at that and see how it looks....in my sillier moments what I really want is a tux with his face against the window trying to get out!! hee hee.
