I use icons that recall the Win XP era, when home users finally got an NT-based Windows version that made both work and gaming more stable than ever before. The overall design was also inspired from Windows 2003 Server Edition. I worked a lot with it.

• Gaming Backlog (menu item): Floppy box icon from the once-famous disk catalogue app "Where Is It?".
• Gaming Backlog (post): 5.25" floppy drive icon from Win 95 Plus.
• Clean Patching: PyWin32 logo from the early WinXP era.
• Company culture: The icon of Office Communicator. It was a variant of the MSN messenger I loved so much.
• KDE Neon: KDE's official icon.
• About Gridranger: An icon drawn by me.
• Space Colony: The game's official desktop icon.
• Friendships in my life: People icon from Windows XP.
• Jousting in video games: Icon of Mount & Blade: Warband.
• Helsinki Biennial: An official XP icon, bu I have no idea what it was used for.
• Data & Encryption: Security icon from XP.
• Intro through traits: Icon of the Sims 2 standalone Sim creator.
• Hospital visit: One of the remote desktop executable's icons in XP.
• Win 3.1 Nostalgia: Win 3.1 progman.exe icon. That was the shell there instead of explorer.exe in later installments.
• Poets of the Fall: Win XP audio CD icon.
• Video games that made me learn: Sims 2 University expansion icon. The post mentions Sims 3, Transport Tycoon and Civilization. The last two being DOS games have no Windows icons. Sims 3 has no learning related icon and Sims 2 icons fit better to the WinXP/2003 design anyway.
