I have no knowledge of making this kind of icons, but i have a suggestion that would make them even more appealing to me:

You now have for the "moving" icons, 2 states the outer circle parts can have (hmm seems i am not so good in this design talk

hope you understand). My guess is that the intention was to make them seem to rotate, but to me it looks now like they are just blinking. Maybe make it a 3 state, so they would seem to rotate.

Lol i really hope you understand what i mean.

Hmm maybe example:

- | - | - (this looks like just horizontal and vertical blinking in turn)

- \ | / - \ | / - (this looks like rotating)

Maybe you won't have to. I might be in the process of building a "comic style" to compliment the graphics in the (visual curve series). That said, I loathe styling so it may take a while to start. In anycase, If I should manage to pluck up the courage to start it and finish it I'll let you know.

The status icons are still a W.I.P even though they are released, I still class them as a w.i.p to me. So, any suggestions to improve them are greatly appreciated. The 3 state animation certainly does sound appealing and I'm sure I will give this a go today. All I would need to do is add another ring and chop away at the path so there's literally 3 rings with each one animating to give the rotating effect you suggested. I'll see how it goes in photoshop and if everything runs smoothly I'll post a few previews before submitting a final release.

edit: Updated the first post in this thread with a 3 state animated version.
