Very nice! I've been meaning to ask you, do you need special software to create icons? I want to make some of my own but I've no idea how. Downloading the pics is no problem but it's the formatting I've got no clue about.

I use PaintShopPro8 for my graphic work. Lots of people swear by Photoshop and various others. You can download a free 60(I think) day trial of PaintshopPro. It's def worth doing to see if you want to buy it and gives you plenty of time to make lots of stuff too. It is a complex thing to use and I am constantly finding out new stuff. There numerous books most of which are indecipherable but I have a very good one if you do get PSP that I would recommend. Also there are lots of LJ sites devoted to using and sharing hints on the various graphic programs, some of which are very helpful:)

Thanks! We've actually got Adobe Photoshop on our PC, although I've never used it, so I think I'll start with that and just see how I get on. I'm not very patient with technical books but I'll check out the LJ sites - never thought of that!
