UPDATE: Again, sorry for another long delay. I completely redrew the icon this time and am quite happy with it right now. I finally put it up for download, although I will keep it listed as a WIP until I decide it is finally completely done.

Update: Sorry for the loooooooong wait, I hadn't even had time to open the file until now. Tell me what you think of it.

Here is my icon for the Dashboard. I wanted it to move away from the generic circle with a few generic glyphs that are so many other Dashboard icons.

I left the gauges blank because things tend to get a little cluttered when the gauges are filled and I wanted the icon to look fairly simple, but with a bit of style.

The rings are supposed to look like polished metal or chrome, but I am having a bit of trouble with getting the look quite right. One on the left is the first version I did. On the right is the second, which I did a few weeks later. I'm not quite sure which one looks better. If anyone has any suggestions, I would really appreciate it.

Oh, and the hand will come in more colors, too.

I really like the effect, and I know what your going for but I don't think you quite got it. I know how hard it is, I'm trying my hand at icon making atm and this is an effect I tried to get, like the ring outside the time machine icon. Keep going!

Umm, I guess the simple answer is this: when it is done. Other than that, I still have some work to do, I have had some pretty good feedback, and I still have some work to do on it. I haven't even gotten to the smaller sizes yet. Hopefully, soon. Thanks for the interest.
It looks amazing. Can't wait to put my hands on it.
