Honestly, I don’t know how I feel about these BeOS
icons for MacOS X
. Aesthetically, most of them look OK, but the axonometric projection is a
little off on some. Legally, well, those icons have been so popular
over the years that it was all our legal team could do to keep
up with all the copyright thieves. However, now that nobody’s pursuing those
rights any more, and moreover that I’m lifting
ideas from BeOS myself
, I find it hard to get really upset.
