Topic Icons

Can anyone who is resourceful find me a set of "Topic Icons" for use here? They do not necessarily have to match the forum theme exactly... but can't be too gaudy as well.
Topic icons are something like a graphic image saying what the topic is about - like [REQUEST], [BUG] or [RELEASE] etc, rather than typing that into the subject bar. I cannot remember where I saw this used, but it looked pretty slick.
Any ideas?

You want something like this (obviously smaller)?
if you do, just give we the pixel size you are looking for and I will see what i can do.

Hmm, that's a cute little bug.

I was originally thinking of a bar with the word [BUG] written on it (kinda like our Edit or Quote buttons in the post), but you know that might be too much. I like your idea. If you have a couple for me to try, I can throw them in and test them.
Topic Icons are optional, and I think I have them turned off now anyway because the default set is just stupid.

Well I love to see a Off Topic general conversation and a section for members to introduce themselves.
