Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard 9A499 Icons and Screenshots

ThinkSecret has published another gallery of images from the latest build of Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) with a focus on many of the new Finder icons which are displayed in high resolution screenshots.

They note that Apple's Leopard icons support higher resolution icons than the 128x128 pixel size limit in previous versions of Mac OS X. Accordingly many of the Finder icons resolutions have been increased.

The higher the standard resolution gets for new machines, the smaller those icons are going to seem at a maximum size/magnification.

As screen resolutions get better, and screens get larger everything will need to be vector or extremely high resolution.

Same for Spaces and Screen Sharing. I hope they're just placeholders.
