Serious question.

What's the point in icons so insanely large?

Information density is bad on Windows, and absolutely ****ing atrocious on OS X it seems.

"Serious question.

I like the way they look at that size. I can very easily reduce the sizes of them, I just don't want to. Example:

Well, I have a new theme, a new wallpaper, and several new icons.

If you have any questions about where I dug something up, do ask. I love answering questions and being helpful and counterflaming flames and suing for libel damages and never mind about that last part.

SL - I'd reduce the size of those icons or Glonk will tell you what an idiot you are for having things the way you like them.

No no no, St Leo is an idiot for his political beliefs.

Artsy-fartsy people always have ridiculous tastes. They're not idiots for their tastes, they're idiots for being philosphers and sociologists.

I'm not artsy-fartsy. Artsy-fartsy people get laid more than me.

I like the Dock ripoff SL. I thought that had been sued out of existence.

True, you're just one of those extreme left-wing people. That would be why, you know.

Drake, you should check around the web (like xicons.com) for some cool anime icons to supplement that desktop.
I don't use icons on the desktop. OS X is infinitely superior to Windows in terms of information density and I like to keep it that way...

That one almost worked, but I refuse to believe you're truly that stupid, so I'm going to call your troll and ignore it.

Anyway, here's some of my icon collection. I especially like the Jules Verne set and the "Halloween Horror" Hard Drives.
