If you want some AWESOME metro-like filetype icons, >>> CHECK THIS OUT!!! <<<(not by me)
FEATURED SECTION:
~monkee98 has made most of my Metro UI Icons into .SVG FORMAT, if you want to have these icons ANY SIZE AT ALL, DOWNLOAD HIS PROJECT!!!!!! (you can open them with any modern internet browser BUT I recommend installation of Adobe Illustrator or a similar program like Inkscape for those who want to do more advanced tasks with them...) [link] A few more great icons like Eclipse and JDownloader made by ~murfad here: [link] !hameddanger has made a Windows 7 theme featuring these icons: Metro Tile Skinpack... Also featured by the co-founder of IconsPedia:[link] and many other places... These icons are also used on AskVG's OFFICIAL website as default for download, and contact icons! [link]
P.S. In my opinion, I think it looks nicest on RocketDock's "Zoom: Flat" Hover Effect style to add a nice, clean matching style!
RULES FOR USAGE: You may use these icons however you like, BUT if you post them online for others to see, you must provide appropriate credit to me and this set and selling ANYTHING that contains my icons in any way is strictly prohibited UNLESS you are willing to give me a portion of your earnings via Paypal, on ANY site. Period!
COMMONLY ASKED QUESTION: Q. "How do I install these icons?" A. These are JUST IMAGES so you can use these any way you want. If you want to use them for system icons, then my .ICO's are needed and you need to use StarDock IconPackager or IconTweaker.
If you want to use them for Windows 8 Start Screen, my .PNG's are needed and you need to get OblyTile: [link]

DONATIONS OF ANY AMOUNT FOR ALL MY HARD WORK ARE ALWAYS ACCEPTED AND HIGHLY APPRECIATED!!
If you're interested in using these icons or interested in having me make something for you for a commercial product or service, you can contact me by sending me a Note here on DeviantART!
Well I love this work, its simple but it looks better than anything. Its very useful in Windows 8 since microsoft decided to keep the old aero icons in the new Modern style, and after using them I have seen they look like they belong each other. This work is huge, and its impresing as what is available, however, there are a lack of some icons that really cut the ability to theme all your computer. However this is something worth looking and using, since its the best icon theme I have ever used (well I love Faenza, but this is a new level cool icons)
PD: Please do an icon for Feedly, Wunderlist, Sony Vegas Pro, Blender, Visual Studio Express, Windows Media Center, and XBMC, well sorry for the big list, but these were the programs I use daily and feel stange surrounded by their metro similars
This icon set is personally my favorite metro icon set out there. Everything about this is amazing. Let's start with the vision, as in what it looks like. The icons look amazing, anywhere you put them. The color selections are very wise. Although, I kind of think that there is a bit too many light blue colored icons. The square shape of the icons make them look great when they are together. These icons are also a perfect fit with Windows 8. Well, about originality. These icons are not exactly a new idea. They are made for the well-known Metro UI that came with Windows 8. Still, this icon sets is a very popular one, and many of these icons have never been seen before. I don't know about what technique was used, but whatever technique was used, it seems that you knew what you were doing, as it turned out great. If I look closely at the icons, none of them look stretched. The white icons are perfectly centered on their tile. Impact? Well, I'm pretty sure that icons aren't made to "evoke strong emotions", which is what impact is for. I'm going to talk about a different impact. These icons have become very popular. Many, many, websites use them (some without giving credit ). I also think that these icons look amazing with Rocketdock, and they're the only reason I downloaded Rocketdock. Overall, I think you did a great, splendid, job on these icons. If there weren't categories, I would have given you a 5 star overall! Keep creating icons!
I'm pretty sure there are 3rd party themes using my icons, the description of this set explains this and mentions a theme using my set. And if you don't use that (or any existing theme) you have to use a program like StarDock IconPackager, or IconTweaker.
