hiya mate, tiy can edit your icons in photoshop, normally, i end up creating my own mask (layermask) and do a feather of around 1 pixel. that ensures smooth edges.

Ps: let me know if you wanna contribute any icons for future themes...

Sir? ooooh I feel privileged!!!

Yes you would get better results by making a mask in photoshop and paste that into the MASK option in theme studio. Tutorial? hmmm, I will try to knock something up for you!! for now.. lets see if I can finish off the next theme.. haha

Cheers

next:
duplicate your icon layer
goto quick mask mode (apple +q) (ctrl +q)
create a mask
copy paste the icon and mask into theme studio.

there is a much better way to get the perfect masking if you have PNG files with transparent bkground. I will post a walk through soon.
