It looks like I'm done with the last ticket so I thought I take
a
shot
at another icon with ticket #101.
I quickly threw together a couple of hires mock ups that reuse
existing components, any feedback on a kickstart icon is
appreciated...

Hi Bryan,
Here's a few tips. Starting with a highres always leads to suboptimal metaphors. Think
how you'd execute that at 16x16px. You're using way too many elements here. My
understanding of the kickstart tool is that it creates a sort of receipe to perform future
installations automatically. That's where you should focus with the metaphor. Think
recipe, installation, automation, cloning... and try to minimize the number of objects
required.
cheers
