Sure, watches that tell you when you’re walking unsteadily and pocket computer phones that show you the closest pizzeria are swell, but were you around for ResEdit?

@zeldman I remember a guy named Hide Itoh. Itoh was the best 32x32 icon designer I ever saw; he had a supernatural ability to represent pretty much anything—sushi, household items, guitars, you name it—as an instantly recognizable icon. I used his sets for years.

Edit: a collection of his work is here: https://www.iconarchive.com/artist/pixture.html

(Not sure what happened to Itoh; he disappeared from the web years ago, and as far as I can tell, he's not working as a designer today.)
