NOD2 Hits
Cyril Seillet has been working on an iconset for a long time. It’s pretty, it’s detailed, and it’s been slowly revealed— icon by icon— since the middle of March. Now that it’s nearly August, Seillet has released NOD2, a stunning iconset comprised of silver hard disks, hyper-detailed folders, and glowing blue highlights. He admits that some icons are currently missing (coming soon in an update), but as far as the current offering goes, I’d easily place it in the top tier of “high technology” system icons. NOD2 is available on deviantART, and I highly recommend watching the page until it becomes complete enough to apply to OS X (and so we can stop just staring at them in awe).

The tones of black and blue are as if they were created in a dark room. I think this icons could be very useful for darkish sites.

Is it just me or do the folder icons look a lot like Minium? That being said, I liked the previous releases better. Nothing groundbreaking here, could have been so much more.

That black folder with a little blue light on the bottom is a blatant rip off of Calbi by Sascha Höhne at Rad.e8. It’s nice looking but certainly not original.

Umm… it’s Minium, like I said :). Not Calibri:).

Minium was one of the most used and known set of icons ever released (we’re still waiting for that black set till now) and i think Revamping that particular icon in NOD2 is a great idea.. the set looks wonderful and definitely appreciated for its detail and originality..
