 Yes! Please post the icon sets, especially the traditional one!

 By the way, something about GunShy that's always made me curious is the
fact that it beeps anywhere from 0-5 times when "New Game" is selected.
This doesn't always happen, and I can only assume it's some sort of debugging
code, as no mention of it was made in the online help.(?)  Also, I often
wish there was a menu item to turn game sounds off, especially as the end
approaches (with its ear-piercing cavalry charge at full volume). These are
fairly minor points, though... GunShy is tremendous!
