Floppy Disk


I'm a big fan of simple images with complex lighting elements like this; in many ways, I like them better than the attempts at recreating existing artwork!

Layer 1: Square, white ("write" tab on the bottom right of the disk)
Layer 2: Rounded square, off-white (square in middle of disk)
Layer 3: Rounded square, dark-blue (slightly larger than layer 2; creates a border around it)
Layer 4: Rectangle, dark-blue (notch in the slider at the top of the disk)
Layer 5: Bullet belt, off-white (highlight on slider)
Layer 6: Rectangle, gray (slider)
Layer 7: Rectangle, white, outline (outlines layer 8)
Layer 8: Rectangle, dark blue (creates area just to the left of the slider)
Layer 9/10: Rounded square, blue (put one in each of the top two corners; together with layer 11 makes the disk highlight)
Layer 11: Thin oval, blue, sideways (makes the curve of the disk highlight)
Layer 12: Rounded square, dark blue (main body of disk)

Here's an expanded view of the disk, which should hopefully make it easier to tell what the final product looks like.
