This is another one of a bunch of steampunk icons that I have created that will leave your Windows or Mac desktop looking absolutely spiffing. There is a whole set of the little thingies and I must say they do look very steampunk indeed! They really are a suitable replacement for the boring old default icons that come with Rocketdock/ObjectDock &c.
This icon and the others like it will spruce up your desktop and give it a bit of Victorian class. Compatible with MobyDock, ObjectDock, RK Launcher, and your default Windows icons.
You can get all the icons on one bundle here: [link]
In this bundle, each icon image is combined within a single ico file so that you have the icons sized at 16, 32, 48 or 128 bytes all in one.
Most of these icons are entirely my own work, and a very few are heavily modified images incorporating some bits from the British library icon set from Samantha Wright.
If you want any new ones then just ask! I am always open to new (or old) ideas - please leave a comment, these icons are quite hard to do and a nice comment makes my day.
Rocketdock Installation: In the rocketdock folder there is a subfolder called icons. Move these icons into that folder or create a subfolder called steampunk icons and copy them in there. Then you simply change each of your individual icon images to any one of these. Easy enough.
The only condition for downloading and using is that you leave feedback. Please leave a message and rate the icons as it is the only payment I get for creating this small desktop addition
Aaaaah I think this one is my favorite >w< I love the aesthetic of the old keys and lock, and the lack of background must have been really challenging, but it payed off in my opinion.
Pleased that you like it. Sometimes it is the hint implied by the items that does the job, so it needs no more. I often create an icon with no background at first and then use it on a more contrived background such as my other Eric Gill stamp icons. Some people like them with a background and others without so I aim to please.
