updating the icons has absolutely nothing to do with the OS. The pack can contain old style (24 bit) icons as well as the newer 32 bit (xp) style icons. In fact it can include monochrome if khaled so chose. The OS decides wich icons to display at wich time based on resolution and color depth. It is true that the 32 bit icons will not work for non xp systems but as long as you include the older counterparts it wouldnt matter.
As for the "alot of people dont use XP" this is true but what about the 10's of thousands that do? Just because a number of people refuse to upgrade does not mean everyone should remain in the dark ages especially when a solution for both system is available.
For anyone on windows 95 thats just plain ridiculous. Thnk of all the advancements they will never see. Its because of users like that developers are forced to stay within a certain boundary. Thus keeping software development behind where it perhaps could be.
