A Branch Seidenman posted 'Retina Icons' on idle-dev. He posted a screenshot similar to Kevin's. He says Apple recommends having all these sizes: 1024px × 1024px 512px × 512px 256px × 256px 128px × 128px 64px × 64px 32px × 32px 16px × 16px Creating new icons larger that 48px is beyond me. Besides which, I believe these are copies of files elsewhere in the repository. (The icons directory should have a README explaining the files and their origin. How many of these sizes would actually be useful? Would larger icons be useful on hi-rex Linux (or even Windows) systems?
