Hi all,
So I'm finally ready to customize my TiBook's GUI only to find that NOBODY created a custom icon for a network drive. I can't find one anywhere.

Bueller?

If you want something with color, the one which comes with the BeOSX theme is one of the nicest I've seen. It was done by Ryan CLark as well as the rest of the icons for BeOSX. It looks like this:

Let me know if you want it and I'll post it.

..in Mac OS X Server are some of them I think. Dive into the ressource files there. Icons in 10.2 Server are especially cool. (My taste)

If you cannot get them I could find some for you.

I isolated the grey metal base FYI, it's pretty bland without the icons on top but hey, it's a metal disk, what did you expect.

Hey, thanks, I did not find time to do this myself. So now it is more easy to make my own matching my customized theme. Great.
