World of Copland, Volume 3
by Gedeon Maheux, Talos
Tsui & Corey Marion
The Iconfactory first released the World of Copland Icon Collection
back in Sept. of 1996 and it has since become one of our most popular
creations. Everyone just seems to dig objects and folders that present
themselves at that cool, funky Copland angle. At this writing, the
next scheduled Mac OS release is code-named "Allegro". Even
though this release supersedes the original "Copland" OS,
we just couldn't bring ourselves to start calling these icons the
"World of Allegro". Just didn't sound right. :-)
The enclosed folder contains 48 icons based on the now infamous and
defunct Mac OS code named Copland. While this OS will never be released
in its original form, aspects of Copland, like the distinctive 3D
look of the interface, have pushed through into Mac OS 8 and beyond.
We've greatly expanded upon the techno/computer objects category with
icons of the G3 MiniTower, a PalmPilot, input devices, output devices
and Apple's new Studio Display. All this plus more everyday objects,
and even a digital fortune cookie that you can customize and send
to friends! We hope you enjoy!
Thanks:
We here at The Iconfactory would like to say thanks to all the fans
that have been so supportive since the site opened. It really does
help us out to know that you all are out there and appreciate all
the pixel-pushing we do. We love to hear from you, both good and bad
stuff, so don't be afraid to write and tell us what you're thinking!
