Hi Art-pandas! :)
I have worked on a little icon for system-file-manager. It's not finished yet, still need to play a little with the shadows. But tell me what you think. I started to make a "dark"-blue version, but Martin thought it would be better with something lighter, so I have experimented a little - take a look.
Shoot!

Ok, since none other seems to comment, I'll step in in order to not make it stalled ;-) Now that I look at it, the dark looks better than the light version (the bright blue, or even almost white clashes a lot with the mid-bright grey). I was thinking you could perhaps try to improve the contrast (in smaller sizes) by making the body brighter instead of the drawers (probably not as bright as in user-desktop though). Plus the shadows in 256x256 under handles need improvement. I'd use trapezium (lol, I had to find out this word in dictionary...) instead of ellipse.
I'll try to take a look at it :)
Other than that, I'm pretty much satisfied with the result (as we discussed on IRC already), even though it's not wooden ;-)
MMh... Plastic and Metal :D
