There are many here: http://www.thegameheroes.com/phpBB3/vie ... 2&p=150626,
and also here: http://www.ix.sakura.ne.jp/~yoshi/icon/game/.

Null Face donated a few in this thread, but most of them can just be found on those above sites.

I edited my the model 2 Mega Drive/Mega CD to look like a model 2 Genesis/Sega CD. I'd like to find a Genesis 1/Sega CD 2 icon, since that is actually what I have. I've never actually owned a model 2. I'd also like to find a model 1 Neo Geo CD icon.

I made the TI-94/a and MSX systems in my signature myself.

I just used MS Paint. :D

use photoshop or paint.net to edit them out into your own.

Looks like you're figuring it out!

Lots of copy/paste work. Once you get it all on there, it's easy to add things later though.

Breetai you need to save your pasted together image as a GIF or PNG so you don't end up with jpeg compression nastiness.

Also make sure you set your background colour to bright pink and then set that colour as your transparency when saving as a gif/png. Then you don't get an ugly white border/background that looks like you threw the sig together in 30 seconds with paint.
