In the last two months or so we came up with 2 new styles of icons meant for different uses then Novo and Bubble.
The Uno series are abstract dark icons meant for small sizes. The sets include optimized versions for 32x32 and 16x16 pixels in their zip file. Both glossy and matte versions are included for 32x32 and background buttons for both sizes since these kind of icons also work great as buttons.

The Micro series are also meant for tiny sizes but they follow the brightly-colored, semi-realistic pattern while trying to be as simple in design as possible. The only effects they use are linear and radial gradients and they include the easy color swap feature. Also they include bonus buttons usable in combination with the icons.

Minor tweaks
We said we would apply minor tweaks to our blog. By that, of course, we meant completely overhaul it's design and colors. So here it is, our blog refreshed, brighter, smoother and more clear. Also our Facebook and Twitter pages are done with small samples of what we do.
We've had enough HTML and CSS for now so we'll be focusing on icons in the next months.

New sets, new features
Along with the uploading of the new Novo and Bubble sets we have also implemented a useful new feature into our icons and will be using it on every set from now on. With a few clicks you can now change the colors of an icon or part of it!
Check out the Extras section of our blog to see how it works.
Landmark
We've just passed 5000 downloads! Not that the number of accumulated downloads matters much anymore on iStock but it's a good morale milestone and shows how far we got.
Cheers to our customers and to icons!
Back to work
September is here so it's time to start work again. First we'll worm up with some CS5 tutorials and then it's back to the icon drawing board.
By October we should have some fresh sets on the shelf.
Blog finally done
Welcome to our blog!
We managed to finalize it after a long battle with html. This should help us give a more detailed presentation of our work and maybe even get some feedback from our customers.We'll surely follow up with small design tweaks.
Hope you like it.
