These are smocking hot !
i’ll try the Photoshop icon in my Dock, to see if it goes well with the others :)
Thanks a lot !
Thanks so much. I’ve been waiting for this!
It’s Creative Suite not Studio.
Are you still planning a install package? (for standard installation location would do the trick)
Nice, Adam! Great work.
@Simon: I don’t know PackageMaker that well yet but if it really can’t do flexible location then there’ll be a lot of work just to get it to barely work (it’s breaking for some apps such as AE for unknown reason.) Maybe there’s other installer apps that does this better?
Another great set but I was wondering whether you would plan on releasing a matte set, also without the Adobe logo on the smaller ones as it doesn’t seem to work so well on the smaller sizes.
Still, a nice replacement set, thanks :)
These are slick! You’re still the go-to guy for Adobe replacement icons!
Awesome!
Great work!, but will you publish a windows version? I’m a PC user, and I use objectdock, so… plz… ;-) thx anyway
Any chance of releasing an alternate set without the adobe logo on the corner of each icon? It doesn’t seem necessary.
@Alex: I’m sure there are Windows softwares that’ll convert icns to Windows format. If anyone made a Windows version, I’ll add the link here
@Cristofer: If more people wants non-Adobe logo version, I’ll do it later.
About those windows versions, think I have time this weekend to convert them. @Adem Betts: I’ll send you the ICO’s so you can check ‘m … Mac has no problem opening .ICO files right?
+1 for non-adobe logo on under 48px.
but either way these are top shelf. (Y)
No idea if there are better installers.
What keeps me from using the application folders are the generic folders. They only work when using the generic snow leopard folderset.
Hot. Was hoping you’d do these. Thanks for continually having better design sense than Adobe!
Thanks man!
These look so much better than the standard icons with CS5.
Awesome! Thanks
Excellent work! Cant stand the new CS5 Icons, this is a huge improvement.
Thanks.
Mad Sweet CS5 icon upgrades!
For those looking to convert to Windows ico’s you can just use this site to convert the icn’s … http://iconverticons.com/ or http://iconverticons.com/beta.php
+1 for a non-Adobe set with a ‘twist’ in the side bar! :) Keep up the stellar work Adam.
I can’t get InDesign to take the new icon. I replaced everything in the Resources folder and I even tried replacing the icon manually through the Get Info window. Restarted, repaired permissions, and the old icon remains.
All other applications in the suite were updated just fine. These are sweet icons, by the way.
Whoops, my fault. I didn’t see your instructions in the InDesign folder.
Any chance of a 48×48 size for each icon? Properly made and not just a resize.
i wonder if I can get a template, I promise will only use for personal use.
Those look really great!
Beautifully done! Thanks very much.
Wow, these are really awesome. Could you make one for Premiere Elements 8? That’s the only one I think you’re missing right now, and since you’ve got a Photoshop Elements icon it would complete the “Elements Suite” set :)
Wonderful icon set!
Here is the icon pack fully converted in windows ICO files

Very, very, very good icons, thanks. It’s the perfect complement for Alu Curved 3d dock
Sweet! Adobe should hire you for CS6
You improve them every time even more! These are smoking hot! LOVE THEM! Thanks for your hard work dude! :D
Great Job…i loved :)
how do i change the adbe folders, i’ve tried the two main methods and it aint owrkin
Excellent work! Do you have png/ico files?
Just added link to sevenalive’s .ico files for Windows:

Possible you can make an app icon for ColdFusion?
wenderful icons I love it

They’re gorgeous! I love the gradient and the shine. It’s shiny but not Over-the-Top-Web2.0 style. Now my only problem is that none of my other icons are half as pretty looking. It’s going to be a challenge finding equally nice icons for my dock. :3
Great icons! Will there be one for Adobe Audition??
Great icons! I hope you are going to design the Adobe Audition icon as well.
Hi Adam, I love your awesome icons so much, there’s an improvement in the look and feel of my dock and desktop.
Thanks!!! Keep on going man!
One more thing: Could you make a FreeHand CS5 style app Icon? I’m still using it (:
I love the icons. Like others have said, the only change I’d like is to remove the Adobe logo. I didn’t even know it was the logo because it’s so small. Also, not that I I really use it, but you seem to have overlooked DNG Converter.
experencieng heavy download difficulties here for the icontainer set..anyone else?
Thanks
Hi,
You could make the icons are missing as Adobe Premiere Elements, etc. Congratulations for you work.
Regards,
Paulo
Much better than the original. Not sure why Adobe took a step backward.
Thanks.
This is incredible work. such talent. thanks so much
Fantastic work… What are the legals behind the use of these icons? I would like to use some of these icons in a commercial PPT presentation. Creative Commons? Maybe include a text file within the archives you have available for download.
This icon set is free for all. No permission is necessary
Thank you very much looks very nice
Really good icons they suit my desktop well but now framemaker and robohelp have released could you make icons for these aswell?
Thanks Adam, I will try them out. Ohh and I swept up those pixels you spit out….
Hi, nice work! Is it allowed to use these icons in a corporate presentation with proper credits? I’d like to use ACP_PDF and Document_SWF as a representation of pdf ans swf files. Thank you!
Oh sorry… just noticed your post of February 7th, “This icon set is free for all. No permission is necessary”. Thank you very much!
Thanks. The default icons from Adobe are Uuuugly. Seems like each version of CS the icons get worse.
The reason I downloaded these was two-fold:
1) They’re gorgeous, and you would think Adobe, the leader in multimedia and design, would have created better looking icons.
2) My Dreamweaver and a few other icons didn’t work on installation (downloaded from the Adobe website). This isn’t the first time.
But how do I install them on Windows? All I have are the icons and no clue where to put them! Thanks :)
Adam, I know you must have some serious work in your hands at the moment. But, is it possible to update your icon set to include the new Adobe Audition app/folder/document icons and Adobe Story, both now included in the Mac installation of CS5.5?
Hi Adam, Are you planning on making icons for the new Adobe Acrobat X? It would be much appreciated! :) Beautiful work, btw. Thanks!!
thnx for the icon set! i really apppreciate it!

@Jonnuboy, glad you like the icon set :)

http://artofadambetts.com/files/Ad...
As for other apps, there’s simple rules for my CS5 icon set: It have to be available for Mac and no abandonware (ie: Golive.)
Thanks for these great icons. I have a question which may be dumb but how do I go back to the default icons???
@Marco,
You should have them backed up before replacing the icons. If not you’ll have to reinstall CS5 if you really want the default icons back.
Ah but I reserved an ace under my sleeve!!! I haven’t switched them yet… :p
Thanks a lot for your answer Adam, this is some class A stuff.
Thank you sooooooo much for these!! i was just roaming here and there. and suddenly found this! :D ahh sometimes it good to be roaming ! :D
