I did a quick search and didn't find SVG source for the 16x16 icon (at
first I wanted to reuse it with some tweaking) :-/ The one at git is the
old one with a floppy... The sources need some update, I've already
uploaded all SVGs I had at my hdd, but I didn't keep everything :-/

  Are you OK with it (I hope it does not look like camera now =)?

I, for one, like that version - the needle would be OTT, the screws
are subtle but are a good addition. Reckon you've been staring at it
for long enough? :)

Well done, thanks :)

 Hi all,

  I've made first try of the drive-* icons, so far only 48x48 to get the
  basic idea. I attach them. I decided to remade them completely to better
  present the metaphors and to be easier to differentiate among them.

  Comments welcome,

 Martin

It may be different from camera icon, but hard drive icon looks
exactly like by canon =)

 Crap, I totally forgot there are such flat cameras out there... And I
  liked it most of the three :*( Anyway, any idea what to do about that?
  It's totally different from echo camera-photo [1] icon, but looking at
  your comment, it's probably not enough?

  Thanks,
  Martin

I can see where they are coming from - but I think in context and with
details (i.e. the icon could be with the text Filesystem, 20GB Hard
Disk etc.) then it would be down to common sense. It is worth
changing though,just to be safe.

I think if it were inset and had a needle, it wouldn't be camera-like?

Yup, the inset helps (see the attachment). I am not exactly sure what do
you have on mind when speaking about needle... Removing the surface and
showing the inwards, or adding some sort of stand support?

Thanks,

I wonder... Where on Earth did you see such a camera? Even the hardest I
try I fail to see camera there :-/ (even images.google search showed
nothing like this design...)

Probably not, it's not what user sees when he looks on his real
harddisk.

Btw. Does adding screws and inverting the central-part gradient help a
bit?

 WHEN he sees it, it usually looks like this...
  http://www.sniper.be/wp-content/uploads/hddimg.jpg

  But most of the time, user does not see it at all...


   Btw, canon ixus: 
 http://imagebank.ipcmedia.com/imageBank/c/canon-ixus850IS.jpg
  

 Hm... I see there enough differences to clearly tell which one is camera
  and which on is harddisk (especially because the disk is far more bare
  and does not have the objective)...  How about some of the newer tries
  (especially the ones with screws and without the lens-like thing)?
