64. Vin Diesel created MacGyver from a paperclip, toilet paper tube, and a Sega Dreamcast. (That one was straight from the Random Facts about Vin Diesel page. I still go there every once in a while and crack up when the factoid pops up.)

But I thought an icon didn't need text.

In a perfect world.

Oh, I know... How about an icon (with text) which reads Ctrl+S ?

As far as pics for icons, I really can't think of a better one than a floppy with the shutter on backwards. I wonder how many people would notice if it suddenly flipped and the shutter was on correctly...

Okay, I have to say it - I don't think the shutter is being shown backwards.

The icon is showing a dark shutter with a lighter spot for where it can slide to the right. The picture is showing a silver shutter with a (dark) indentation where it slides to the right. What's throwing off the comparison is that the icon doesn't show the cutout in the shutter; which would be too busy for the small icon.

65. Studebaker Hawk can write The Lord's Prayer on the head of a pin!

That's how I see the "save" icon as well, Al.

 

[Bryan X]

The only problem with that is that the "lighter stop for where it can slide to the right" should be the same moulded color as the body of the disk. It's not.

Besides, don't go messin' with another man's facts.

 

[Al.Anderson]

You're absolutely right. My bad!
