So do we Irish. There is no excuse needed for a good drink, but it's nice to have one. ;-)
Yeah, I like the Crystal icon set, although it is a bit glossy for me.
Oxygen now, that would be sweet!

Ehh..I dunno. It doesn't do it for me. I also really dislike "photorealistic" icons (like the hard disk icon in that set). It's an icon, it should symbolize something, not be an accurate depiction of that something.

Drinking in itself is an occasion
I remember the Danish DHL office having their lunchroom fridge stacked with alcohol. That seemed quite odd to a swede.

Aah yeah, well. There are several variations of the Crystal icons. I dislike Crystal Clear very much, but Crystal SVG is nicer. The older versions are generally horrible, but there are some new versions which are quite nice.

A bit too much gloss but nothing like the older Crystal styles. Much more mac-like - more photorealistic than actually glossy.
Something between Crystal and Tango would look so sweeeeeeeet (said with really cute high-pitched voice a la Leela).
In Gnome I use Tango icons but that's because it works fine with my slightly extra-coloured fancy theme. In Windows (or in Gnome with an old-fashioned theme) the newer Crystal icons would probably do juuuuuuust fine. I think.
Okay, I'm officially babbling now
