Icon Creation (or Breaking my Pixel Phobia?)

Particletree - Icon Creation

"Just for kicks, I tried making a few icons the other day. ...

Anyway, here’s the tutorials I played around with.

A Nice List of Icon Tutorials
Simplebits: Anatomy of an Icon
Tools suggested by the Apple Developers for creating icons
Microsoft Developer’s Guide to Making XP Icons
OS X Style AIM Icon
XP Folders Icon
So You Want To Be A Pixel Artist?
I also found a few good ones over at good-tutorials.com. "

I wonder if any of these icon tutorials that Chris found would help me break my graphic phobia/block/I can't pixel my way out of a wet paper bag/etc thing?

Okay, I doubt it too, but you never know... Picaso's ghost might be inside me just trying to get out (NO wonder I'm so fat!) ;)
