Thanks Allan,

I'll give it a try when I have some time.

The problem is:

1) I'm not a designer...
(BTW, does somebody know the font used for the type names on the actual 
icons (CSS, PHP,etc.)?)

2)As my main concern for the icons is visibility I changed the icons 
purpose a bit:
I use project icon for document and made a "classical" project icon. I 
join a small capture.
That makes the TM docs REALLY visible. I love that.
And I prefer the classic style: A pen on text editors icons, project 
icon made with multi docs icons, etc.

I used the Chris Vincent's icon (red TM) till now, and as I finally use 
the "official" one, I'm forking again ;) , but with the docs icons this 
time.

But, if somebody wants them. Just ask.
Till now, I made: CSS, HTML, RUBY, PY, JS, PL, SH, SQL, TXT, XML...
