HISTORY
-------
This icon set was originally created for the Amiga computer by
yours truely.  Since Amigas allow icons of any size, most of
them were larger than the Windows 32x32 standard size, meaning I
had to scale them down and redraw bits.  The original set had
over 100 icons, some just didn't look very good scaled down.
