articlesThese could be the new LiveJournal’s icons type8: your logo is quite nice. simple and clean. maybe what they want is fresh look. easy to recognize the icon. some of your icon is hard to recognize the image, example "track this" icon. The winner icon is not as good as your icon, but what they got is fresh look, simple. that is what i can say
articlesThese could be the new LiveJournal’s icons Czerny: I think a lot website owners would prefer the icons with button because your icons look great but they need .png alpha transparency...

Most big websites needs full IE6 support and it is too complicated to handle .png-files in some reasons. Damn IE6!!
