Icon Help Please

[edee]

I have cut the picture below out of one of Mr. Grims screen shots . I have been trying to make my network icons and cannot get the "T" correct .
Can someone direct me to a tutorial on how to make it or allow me use of a psd already inplace ? , I have been looking all morning for this and it is now holding me up.

This is what I need .......

You would not happen to have the psd ?
So I can manipulate size , color and appearance . It's hard to do that ( and get it right ) with the png.

It'll be good so I can see how it's made and then be able to eventually make my own variations of it.

Thanks so much Mr. Grim.

Sorry I don't have a PSD for it, that was just one of the default icons I got that from, I just had a look for some tutorials and I did find these that may be helpful to you [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

I think you may find that the network pipe icon and many others were rendered 3 dimensional images.

Tools

* Pencil and paper: Initial concept ideas, listed and sketched.
* 3D Studio Max: Render 3D objects in perspective.
* Adobe Photoshop: Sketch and iterate, mock-up in context, and finalize details.
* Adobe Illustrator/ Macromedia Freehand: Sketch and iterate, finalize details.
* Gamani Gif Movie Gear: Produce .ico file (with compression if needed).
* Axialis Icon Workshop: Produce .ico file (with compression if needed).
* Microsoft Visual StudioŽ doesn't support Windows Vista icons (there is no support for alpha channel or more than 256 colors).
