I am a little surprised by the results; I find that many icons that are quite 
similar have very different scores. Maybe others feel more strongly about these?

A couple other comments:

1. While Bogdan's pref-appearance.png is similar to the Appearance preference 
pane icon, the original icon (two feathers of different colors) is something 
unique to Adium that I would miss if it were replaced.

2. I've always liked the use of Adiumy's silhouette in place of the shadowy Mac 
OS X man. It too is a nice touch that builds a better identity for our app.

3. I like George's pref-mention.png icon metaphor better than Bogdan's (which 
won), because it indicates what the feature does --- highlight messages.

4. I'm not a fan of any of the pref-status.png metaphors. The old sign one sort 
of made sense, and I understand the "do-not-disturb" sign that Bogdan was going 
for. I don't have a suggestion; it seems like it is a tricky one.

5. For pref-contactList.png, I'd like to see a combination of Bogdan's and 
George's work.

6. For pref-advanced.png, George's take on the current version loses the joke 
that made the original make sense --- the fact that the chalkboard says E=mc^2. 
That said, I do like his icon and I'd approve of it anyway.

7. For linkToolbar.png, George's is closer to the icon used iWork, but I'd 
prefer the arrow facing to the right so as not to make it seem like an undo 
button or reply or something like that. Bogdan's is also nice.
