I only make very simple icons and never spend more than a half hour on one icon. Any more than that and I'd go crazy (my attention span is terrible). I really admire people who can spend hours on the same icon, making it complex and flawless. Don't know how you do it, lol!
On average, about an hour. Occasionally I can make one in about 20 minutes, and other times it can take me a few days (obviously not straight) to a week if I'm burned out creatively.
It really depends; anywhere from around 30 minutes to...I'm going to say two hours, although I don't think I've spent that long on one icon in one sitting. I will sometimes go back and fiddle with unposted icons, or if I feel like I'm taking too long with one and it's not getting better but I don't want to scrap it, I'll leave it open and come back to it the next day.
Used to take me five minutes maximum but those sucked and weren't really creative or anything... Now we're talking about 30 minutes to hours when I really put effort in something!
An hour, probably, but, plenty of the time, longer than that. I like being able to go back to an icon later and make changes, especially for older icons.
