I wanted the floppy to look like its loosing the sliding thing on the top. But at that size its quite hard to put much detail in it. Can anyone edit it or something?

"losing the sliding thing"...man, you should be happy if anyone could ever guess it was a floppy disc...

Damiens version looks good enough. I don't see the need for a smaller sprite, but then again, I don't know what you're gonna use it for.

This sprite just grows and grows! Okay, here's my take, I tried to show the "sliding thing" falling off:

Is that what you meant?

And at a decent size:

Oh, i made an edit too, It was like really-really difficult and I hope you appreciate this, because I did my best... and a little bit more.
Here it is:

And 4x scaled version:

Now when I'm thinking about this... this could be most painful sprite jam idea ever: draw a 8x7 pixels floppy with color limit of 5 colors only... Painful not to draw, but decide who won. :D
