o After downloaded MagicWB and the multitude of other such icon collections..
  I decided to put something together that was a little different.  It seems
  that all of these icon collections keep trying to outdo eachother with
  snazzier graphics, more colors, better animation.. which in turn give you:
  bigger sizes!

o The idea of SIMPLICITY is different.  This set of icons is ..  as the name
  implies ..  simple.  They are drawn for functionality with a minimalist
  style.  The end result is a very pleasing, simple, WB with a different
  look.

o I have included the IFF file from which the icons were taken, a nice little
  backdrop brush I drew, a preferences palette file for the backdrop and
  another that looks nice with SIMPLICITY (right now I am using 2.04 (after
  having a 1200 for 2 weeks..  sucks going back to 2.0 & ECS) on a 3000UX).
  If I remember right, 3.0 automatically loads the palette from the backdrop,
  so you can disregard that palette file.

o I produced this icon set for a different group of people than the usual
  icon set is.  It is not intended to show off the Amiga (which MagicWB is
  definitely great for).  It is also probably not going to be appealing to a
  new Amiga user.  But:  for those of you who have had one of these wonderful
  machines for a while, use the new workbenches (who can resist?) and don't
  want to waste all the space that highly detailed 8- or 16-color icons take
  up...it is a refreshing change.  Therefore, being aimed at experienced
  users, I didn't put together any scripts to install the icons, AmigaGuide
  documents to describe how to install them, etc.  BUT:  I will give you a
  few hints at it (isn't that nice of me?)
