As a shortcut on the Desktop I do not want text underneath hence it is a SHORTCUT and I want to quickly identify the button by it's colour/shape/icon, not text. Let's keep it simple.

But yeah, I agree with the Q, it's too broad as a stand-alone: will do a new one today. Problem is, we are talking about a minuscule button in sizes 64x64 / 48x48, we loose a lot of detail we do not even need to include, therefore I strongly advice to keep it simple.

@pantera1989, without trying to step on your toes, the ones your made are nice pictures, but have not got much to do with standard logo/icon design.
