I have been getting all of my icons from mediaicons.org for some time as I liked the 3d box look and none of the skins for XBMC would perform that affect on a flat image back in 2006 (at least none of the skins I was interested in). Anyhow mediaicons.org doesn't seem to be maintained anymore (I submitted new icons over 6 months ago that still aren't up on the site). My question is where does everyone go to get their media icons? I think I want to start getting some small rectangular icons (taller than wide I have no idea what the resolution would be, I assume there are some standard sizes) so that they look good with pretty much all of the skins for XBMC (I have noticed a lot of the skins I want to use expect them to be that shape). For instance, I really like what "Transparency!" has done with the movie icons with its cool looking clear plastic case but all of my images already have the DVD case built in and are 3D angled.
Anyway I know icon scrapers are built into XBMC, but I always get strange icons for popular movies. For instance Shrek 2 came down as a double-wide DVD box with the original Shrek and Shrek 2 with no suitable automatically available alternative. This makes finding and applying my own icons a necessity.
Thanks for any help.
