Very nice, especially #1. :D Any tips on how to acheive that style? I've been trying to make icons that seem more ethereal like that one, but it never comes out right.
Aw, I wish I saved the .psd for that one. I'll try to explain what to do from memory. :)
Well, I usually begin all of my icons by adjusting the levels. It takes a lot of fooling around to get the certain look you want. I think for this one I made it a bit more blue. I might have upped the contrast a bit too.
And then to get those blue spots (or whatever you call them :D) I created a new layer, used the brush tool, (soft round at 45 I think and a bright blue colour like #4DFCFF) and put them on. Then I set the layer at hard light. The font is print dashed and that funky corner design is something I just drew on.

Hope that helps!
