I decided to create some icons of a few of the more traveled countries.  You can download them here.
I’ve been using them as folder icons for my pictures of the corresponding country.  I’ll be making more general travel icons in the future, and I will add more countries.  It takes a little while to create them.

When did it become a rule that icons must be corny, hack, cheesy, and soppy?  Travel icons especially bother me…you always get the 1980′s camera, the standard desk globe, palm tree is a staple in most icon sets, and the classic suitcase style luggage that no one has used since as long as I can remember.  I think travel icons should be more truthful…represent the realty travelers face today. And perhaps not so kid-friendly.

As you can tell I’m disappointed by the cheeriness represented in these standard travel icons found EVERYWHERE…so I’ve decided to develop/create my own travel icons. Perhaps more truthful PG-13 rated travel icons. I will be making them available for download in time to come. For instructions on installing on PC, click here.  For mac, click here.

And of course you know I just had to create an IzunoTravel.com icon to get things rolling.

I’ll be spending some time this weekend coming up with a pretty good set I hope, so check back Monday.
