Hi Lucas, Once you've finished polishing those icons I imagine that we will have the joy of having access to them?

@Lucas North Created in Adobe Illustrator.
Feedback or suggestions always welcome.

It looks nice but you know me and vivid colors Now with icons on folders it looks a lot better !!

But I'm still waiting on the nice blue ones

 

[CarJem]

Personal Request / Suggestion... Despite me being fully capable of making my own.
Can I get a bright android green-colored folder with this icon in white?

 

[CarJem]

Also, I made some of my own icons for some specific uses, I'm gonna share them here (the user folder icon is an edit to include smaller images)

 

[ThisOneIsForPosting]

Ok that's enough, I think I'm done with all this Psychedelic folder creating
All these waves and colors are screwing with my vision.
Back to basics from now on methinks.

Is there a direct link for each of the folders in this beautiful set?

 

[ThisOneIsForPosting]

@davidvkimball When you have a chance could you please make an updated version of your "Windows Icon" that either matches the logo used for your drive icons or matches the official start menu logo? Thank you!!!

 

[Zardoc]

Let me know if this is ok for you, otherwise I can adjust it to suit.
There is a slight variation in the second one, I just tweaked the top of the folder to make it stand out a little better.
Also added a variation with a slightly smaller D-Pad and one with a Bevelled D-Pad.
I hope I've covered all my bases.

I like the last one with the shadow. Nice job !!

Just two minor gripes:

1. Missing Smaller Variations... with only the DPad...
2. I know actually think I want a different green
#00c71b to be percise.

Other than that, I think the third variant is my pick of the day... just perhaps make it darker green than actually keeping white.

Do you have any PSD files?
I mean a template from the windows folder.

 

[Dollynho Cuphea]

Someone who makes folders in these colors?

 

[Zardoc]

Define 'Vivid'

Yes, you're right, very vague. So: I mean with a bright color pallet.

It doesn't have to be a full single background color.

Take your Blue variation folders. I like that. it's a vivid blue but with texture.

The steam folders or the iTunes folders, Acronis folder etc.

The colors can be gradient.

Artwork as bright colors but way to many for my eyes.

Choose the fonts that you think suits the folder.

No pastels

Thanks bud.



Snagit


Camtasia


UUP DMP


Win 10 Updates


Win 11 Updates
I think you made a rounded one
or


or


As for

Logiciels (french for software updates)

Ordinateurs (french for computer updates)

Discours Well, use your imagination

 

[Zardoc]

Ok so, Bright colored folders to suit the color of the product maybe as in Snagit (Blue) Camtasia (Green) ?
or do we want same color for all the folders ?
Do you want to stay with the basic Windows 11 folder design or would you rather I use the 'Blue Variation' design ?
Did you want the logos on the folders or just the brand text ?
So many questions but I need the info before I start otherwise I end up with folders full of examples.

I await your feedback Sir !

Yes on Techsmith folders (Camtasia & Snagit)
Blue variation (I like that)
Logos for Techsmith for Win choose sir

 

[CarJem]

Ok test this one for me...
when I searched for the android colour it gave me various choices and of course I chose the wrong one.
Sorry about that, now what variations do you want with the D-Pad ?

View attachment 7580

Okay this is great! Now we just need it's smaller variants to be only the dpad with the folder's color. And that shall be perfect.

 

[Zardoc]

WOW Lucas, These are great!!!. I like both versions so keep them.
Just one thing, Can you make the Win 10 folder a bit darker or even purple to make the difference between them.

As for the three remaining folders, you can do what you see fit. The Logiciels and Ordinateurs folders are for software updates and Hardware updates.

The discours folder is for talks, Do as you see fit but in the same template or type as you did the others.

Ok I know you didn't want black but I just added them to see how good they might actually look.
Let me know if the white is anywhere near what you'd hoped for, but if not I will adjust accordingly.

The 4th is actually the closest to what I wanted.

 

[PerpetualCycle]

Say Lucas, would it be possible to make a (yellow) folder with the python logo for python/python scrip? Their logo is:




I can see yellow folder may be an issue, so some color.

 

[CarJem]

'Closest' so how can I refine it more for you if it's only close my friend, point me in the right direction please.

As in color wise. It doesn't need a shadow, or a glow, or highlights. Just the color.
Then as I mentioned, just make the smaller icon variants simply the dpad icon.

Fantastic to see this thread still blowing up like it is - you guys keep doing some awesome work here!

 

[Zardoc]

I'll take'em all. Very good work!!
