Thank you!  I'm happy I [almost] got it right on the first try.  :)

I actually borrowed the brush from Kolourpaint for the abstraction,
but yeah I can definitely create a more realistic brush (with a wooden
handle and metallic brace).  That might actually be a better way to go
just to add more color diversity.

Although I mainly used the Ksirk icon as reference, I did notice quite
a few Oxygen icons use a top-front perspective (e.g., KGet, Knetwalk,
Killbots).  So I can try reworking this to display the same way (the
cap portion is almost there, so I just have to focus on fixing the
top).

One question, though.... where is the path for the Oxygen icons in SVN?  ^^'

Thanks. ^^
If memory serves, I think I'll be able to produce differently sized
versions of this icon.  So for anything below 16x16, I'll likely be
able to thicken the strokes, bolden the shading and/or remove any
details that would interfere with the scaling (such as the light
shadows at the bottom).
