Oh, and this too may be obvious, but if you come across an icon you like (or batch of icons) SAVE IT (or bookmark it, whatever). Then the next time you make icons, open it up in photoshop and stare at it longingly, wondering why you can't make icons like that. Then go around pushing arbitrary photoshop buttons until you think your icon is nearly as good as the other. Then -- and this is the key step -- leap out of your chair and scream "TRIUMPH!" at the top of your lungs, possibly while pumping your fist in the air. This is how you will let the world know you have achieved success. Well, that and posting the icon to lj. Naturally.
