Looking for an Icon Tut

:confused: Does anyone know any really good icon tutorial sites?!? I have found a few but none have been of great help with the theme of icons I need to create. I am hoping to develop of theme of racing icons (similar to the Window Icons) but can't seem to find anything on the net. Anything similar (football, baseball, whatever) would be fine as long as it provided me with information on shading and perspective. I am hoping to create these small little icons for my Tony Stewart Fansite so any help would be greatly appreciative. While I would rather do and learn everything myself if nothing can be found I could venture out of pocket assuming it isn't too costly. Thanks all. :confused:

Here is a few tutorials in this link,, If i understand right with your icons, you should look into Pixel art. Most icons in programs are made with pixel art,,

hope this hels you out...

Thanks for the link....I actually live on this site but it hasn't been of great help with assisting in the creation of custom icons. I'll keep looking or end up just bitin the bullet and actually paying someone to do some of the work for me. Thanks again!
