Custom Icons for Windows 11 Thread (Folders, Dropbox, Google Drive, Podcasts, NVME Drive, Steam, Adobe)

[Epsilons]

Can someone please do a colored version of the users folder.

Maybe using the "Share" canvas, representing more than "one user", but centered and on the folder, with a background color?

 

[Epsilons]

I have no idea unfortunatly, but something different that would fit nicely along those other colors :

 

[Epsilons]

Maybe "black" would be great? Or "orange" (dark orange like the Origin icon). Your purple idea is okay too.

Ha, @Lucas North was faster than me. Well, here my icons as requested by @Epsilons .

The black look the best. Purple is good too. Orange to be discarded imo.

I realize the colors may be way of from what you are looking for but I just wanted to get some feedback from you.
if you do have a preference to color then let me know and I will work with it.

Look amazing, thanks alot buddy! If you have spare time to do a "single user" colored folder, that would be neat. Men I wish I was able to do that stuff by myself.

 

[Epsilons]

you want the single user in black also ?

Black can do yes.

 

[Epsilons]

May I ask if you can set the "person" inside the folder icon in white?

 

[Epsilons]

Awesome, thanks !!!

OK, I haven't asked in a while. But I do finally have a request.

Lucas - those black folders with colored icons are superlative. Any more that you're willing to throw together I'd be most appreciative. As much as I like dark backgrounds on and in just about everything, I never once considered a black folder - to my chagrin.

All these Adobe folder icons? Take those colored text and throw them on a black folder.... Mmmmm, yummy. Maybe even a (gradient) glow around the text to set it off from the black of the folder, if necessary, for darker colors (although these particular letters for the adobe really should have no need for it, they look sufficiently bright enough to contrast well with that black folder).

Also, sending more coffee you way

I really think this might be my new fav.

 

[Whackbag]

I've been cherry picking this & that since you started the thread and figured it's about time i say Thanx!

...also shout out to Epsilons for putting them all together. Much appreciated.

 

[Epsilons]

Thoughts ?

IMHO, those look the best :

 

[TizianoMad]

Updated the icon pack archive above to integrate the new Adobe softwares colored_folder icons from Lucas North
Updated the "folder_colored" screenshot accordingly to represent that change.

Hi,
Don't forget these from Niivu (DeviantArt)

 

[lmdalagan]

Wow! These are awesome Windows 11 icons! :)
I like what you did for Dropbox and Google Drive. Will you be able to create one for Box Sync, HCL Notes, and a Folder with Mobile Phone as well?

 

[TizianoMad]

Not sure we can add those to be honest @TizianoMad , There are so many more on DeviantArt that the collection has the potential to become huge.
But I could be wrong.

Hello @Lucas North !
Well, his icons are not for sale but it's true it's better to send a link or else to ask permission. He made a rather nice job in the "Windows like" colored ones. You're right, there's plenty more to come soon.

I was thinking about writing to you today anyway !
I think you still really make great designs with icons, but there is just one thing I have to point out. It is really a pity some of your icons are not in the original format (some are too big, some others are not centered) and of course you can spot the difference when they are next to correct sized ones. I apologize if you find me a bit finicky ! I'm a little perfectionist, so that's part of it ! The logos were slightly too big at the beginning but dimensions you are making now are just perfect. Try and keep the right kerning of the edges, shadows and fades. I guess making corrections would take a while, but I think it's worth ! Respecting as much as possible all these points makes a real "pro" look, that the "owner" couldn't do better !
Hope you don't take this bad, you know this stuff already and it is evident you take a lot of time to do this great work. Really not much left to be perfect !

I made a small update on the french forum i'm on, to make it a bit nicer, and to mention @spettojim who joined the thread for the pleasure of all.
(If you wanna have a peep, go to middle page).
By the way, I have a few requests (as I did not have the courage to study Illustrator yet !)

3 +1 folders for the Aaz forum (2 logos) :
1 team-aaz with the original blue background from the site (link above) (split the title split in 2, remove "-", donno if you can erase ".com" ?)
1 team-aaz same as above, but only with the letter "T", and another with just "aaz".
1x1 Aaz with circle, background can stay white, maybe with shadowed or darken edges.

1 (or more) for Windows Arium (I let you decide about backgrounds, maybe "metal grey" could be nice)

Here are different sized PNGs for you to chose the best quality for the dimensions you need.
Also, I didn't find much about the giant social medias !
I have many files from Insta & Fb, and nice folders would be useful:
- Instagram: White logo with colored back ground.
- Facebook: keep full logo with circle but with reverse colors.

...and others:
- Telegram: skip circle (plain turquoise blue color)
- Tor: keep full logo with circle but with reverse colors.
- Signal: skip circle (plain blue color)
- Chocolatey : I let you decide !


My thoughts about the Adobe collection : same as Epsilons (1st) Great work. the enlightened one is very nice but does not appear as clear when displayed next to different ones. Glossy can be cool when it's for an entire collection, but it looks strange next to original ones. (glossy and reflections reminds me too much W7 ! but it's just a matter of taste. For sure many people would be interested in them, I think it was a good idea from you to offer both versions for collections)

Take your time for the creation of all these folders, there is no rush.

Thanks a lot,
Cheers

PS UpDate: actually these requests are my prior preferences, but for sure you are free to try your own combinations and ideas.
I guess for exemple with Facebook, you could try with the circle removed, and also make the "f" blue on white (reverse) but maybe it will remind us the "old" inteface with the square logo. Or not. Donno, you try what you feel. Instagram with the original logo upon white could look cool and minimalist... I have the smaller original choco icon if you need smaller pixel.

I knew it wouldn't take me long to get fed up with the 'Default' color of windows folders.
For years they've been killing us with the dreaded Yellow so I decided to opt for a blue replacement.
Phew ! no more default colors, the problem is once to start to change the color you just cant stop.

Yeah ! That's a very similar color of the old W10 7zip folder one.
It would be great to "have it back !"
File too big, here's the GitHub link.

Maybe it would be too much work, but I'd love to see the entire rainbow in this simple, default style! Love the light colors, it looks like it's right at home in official UI and that's my personal liking!

Those Zipped folders are fantastic! Is there a way to just change all zipped files to that icon? Amazing work
