    Trying out Illustrator CS5 pre-release for creating icons and rather liking it. Pixel snapping works really well so far, and I'm just getting used to multiple artboards.

    These icons will be used in Opera's tab thumbnails (instead of seeing a screenshot of your mail window, you'll get the icon instead)

    Looking rather dandy.

    Have you had a chance to try Fireworks CS5 yet?

    Really like the sticky bit shading on the envelope.

    If only they'd bring Photoshop's layer styles to Illustrator…

    Really looking forward to trying out the pixel snapping in Illustrator.
    Nice icons BTW! :)
    (the Mail icon is meant to be wonky, right?)

    Might be an optical illusion, but the envelope icon looks like it's rotated slightly clockwise. Looking good though! Interested in the new pixel snapping features in Illustrator.

    I see the optical illusion too. I think the diagonally striped border is playing tricks on my eyes.

    I'm sure the optical illusion was entirely planned by Mr Hicks.

    I've been staring at that envelope for hours and I still can't see the god damn sailboat. Optical illusion my ass.

    I think there's an illusion because the stripes change direction on the left and top sides of the envelope. I'm not saying it's a bad thing though ... very interesting!

    John, loving that envelope! Cheers from a fellow Fireworks only designer!

    I'm hoping the following is fixed in CS5:

    * Items retain layer blending mode, even in a group
    * Punched shapes don't drop pixels down a half pixel
