Icon Design Brief
iBookshelf is a extremely popular (top 100 in Books category for several year running) personal book catalog app. You can see the current app/icon by searching iBookshelf in the app store. The icon is a bit drab and I want to include a more snappy icon in the next major release cycle. Submissions should include high resolution (at least 1024x1024) layered PSD files. Examples of similar icons that I like the concept of are:

* http://dribbble.com/shots/104756-iOS-Glassy-Bookshelf-Icon
* http://dribbble.com/shots/827433-App-Icon-Design-Bookshelf
The concept must cleanly convey the existing app capability (personal database of owned books) in sizes from 1024x1024 to 57x57. If desired, designer may choose to use different images (similar concepts but more/less graphical clutter in different sizes) for larger vs. smaller icon images.
Updates
I've added a black and white line drawing of my company logo. Incorporating this somewhere in the design (as an inset "burnt wood" treatment inside the wood shelf for example) would be appreciated and given preference to other designs.
