I'm using VMWare Fusion to run Ubuntu 7.04 and Windows XP and I'd like to start each one using the virtual drive (makes it a little easier for wife). I would love to change the Windows XP virtual drive to have a Windows icon and the Ubuntu 7.04 virtual drive to have an Ubuntu icon but I can't find any.

Does anyone know where I can get icons to represent various OSes? Thanks.

Well, after searching everywhere I could think of I just make a couple using PS. They aren't perfect (Ubuntu icon is missing black border on inside of circles and Windows icon wasn't resized using the right ratio (wanted 128x128 more than perfect resize)) but they're good enough for me. Here they are if anyone's interested:

I have never made icons in my life so please don't tell me they suck cuz I know

Thanks. I just updated it to include Slackware 12, Debian 4, Fedora 7, and Mandriva Spring 2007.
