what about icons which have a look, they're half in the desktop background 
and half going out? or something like that covered by some plastic or glass 
bulb?

BTW:
i was also thinking about new feature for some of next releases of KDE:
icons should have the optional possibility to set an image (pixmap or svg) 
for background of icons and one for foreground of icons...
that would bring us possibilities to make real magic with icons and also 
faster implementation of unconsistently looking (non-kde apps) icons.

just imagine: 
you just installed some new app to your linux box and an icon in 2d oldish 
standard look and style appears included with the application and doesn't fit 
too much with your other shiny icons. but if we have this feature, we can 
e.g. put this icon (manually or automagically) on the icon background theme, 
which could be semi-transparent alpha-blended background half of an magic 
sphere and then cover it with another semi-transparent foreground icon half 
over it!
now we have an icon "packed nicely" and floating inside the transparent magic 
sphere, or whatever kovering theme else, which goes well with all other icons 
placed in other spheres or with them placed outside but created by an artist 
in an shiny (crystalized etc...) magical spherish look... :o)

what do you think about it?
is anybody able to code something like this here ;) ?
