So, I have a style question for you: how many colours in general do you feel are optimal for icons 32*32? and do you always use pure white and pure black as part of the palette?
Oh, It depends on the style. I usually uses 2 tones for shadows and 1 or 2 for light. But if I want something more detailed I add one more color for the shadow. I don't like to use pure white and black, I feel like it's too much contrast.
