I love the icons! The only (cosmetic) issue i have with it though, is the use of different scales for different icons. (i.e. the 'pixels' are 2x2 or some icons, 1x1 on others, and larger still. I personally prefer using a single pixel size on all icons.

Still though! I love pixel art, and love seeing more pixelly icons out there. Thank you for this. :)

Thank you!
I see what you mean about different scales. I actually try to make all of my icons in 14x14, then scale theme to 48px or 128px or whatever.
It's just pretty hard to get something decent with 14 pixels, sometimes, and if I want to incorporate 2 icons for a new icon they usually don't match up. Also, some icons I need 15px or something a bit bigger, so I do that.
Anyway, I'm glad you like them :D
