The only thing I ask for in return is that you "like" this shot, so I know that you appreciate the work. Maybe you could invite me to a beer at the Dribble Meet *hint hint* :D
Of course, any improvements and constructive feedback is welcome!
Once again, awesome job! I have just tweeted it too. Are there more in the works? I apologize for being so greedy, when I see stuff I like I want more of it ;)
Thanks Michel! Yeah, FW is great for vector work. The problem I have with it is that it's buggy as hell (I'm stuck on CS4, dunno if CS5 is better). Adobe should really start treating it as a first-class citizen, and not as an ugly bastard child.
@everyone BTW, I'm still waiting for suggestions for my next set. I think I don't want to do the same icons everyone else has already done, but rather something new and unique... Please help me! Any requests?
To be frank (and I am a big fan of Fireworks, mind!) ...I think that CS4 was the worst version of Fireworks, ever.
But Fireworks CS5 is a whole another story -- with a couple of minor exceptions, its performance and stability is on par (or better) than CS3's (and a few times better than CS4's!); it has some cool new features and additions that are worth the check, too. (This review of Fw CS5 may be helpful to you.)
I am using Fw CS5 all the time now and I am very pleased with it. So you could at least try it (30 days trial sounds good) and see if it works better for you...
First test Fw CS5 -- it's free for 30 days. If you really like its features, speed and stability, you can always upgrade later! :) (But based on my personal experience, I can safely say that I would never switch back to CS4, after I have tried CS5.)
It's a shame that Adobe doesn't fix the bugs in the actual versions they sell. Instead, they leave you with a turd, hoping you buy the "fixed" version....

Hey Dribbblers! Here are some goodies for your enjoyment! 48 tiny 16x16 pictograms to use in your web designs, for free!
Grab them here: http://www.veo-design.com/public/free_pictograms/48_free_pictograms_by_miro_keller.zip. It is a ZIP containing one Fireworks PNG with all the icons in vector format, so you can apply effects, colors, etc, at your own liking. Also included is an Illustrator CS3 file, obviously vectorial, for those who don't like FW.
They are shared under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence but you don't have to link back in your web sites if you don't want to.

All done in Fireworks, then copied vector data to Illustrator and tweaked to adjust to its stronger antialiasing :D

Mmmh, cool set, downloading now! :)
1+ for Fireworks format, too! Fw rocks for everything screen/vector, especially for small/medium icons!
