It is recommended that you do not laugh at those icons made by me in 2000-01.

Nobody can beat the “photorealistic” magnify glass and application name inside window’s body, how brilliant is that!?

I used to go “Omg, this has to be my most detailed and beautiful icon. This icon will be the one that get Apple to hire me.” I really need to slap old Adam for even thinking about that.

“Hey, what if I insert ham instead of flag, what will happen?“

















We all have to start somewhere ;)
I’m happy your back. Hope to see more of your work Mr. Betts!!
People could kill to have a little bit of your talent ;)
I don’t understand very well what hell is the third icon.
My best ^^
Oddly enough, I’m still very impressed with these icons as well.
The comment for the third one makes me laugh.
How about some early 3D work? Oh wait, you showed me those before. They didn’t look that bad =P
I will add more later, there’s only 3 of them for now.
I can’t remember what Foreign Machine app does. All links and descriptions to app are no longer available and google isn’t being helpful on this one.
I’m assuming from the icon design it’s related to country OS X language import/export or something. I can’t really remember.
Awesome post! Your commentary is hilarious.
Reminds me of how embarrassed I am of my earliest works. *blushes*
That foreign machine icon is actually pretty good!
