Wednesday, April 5, 2006 by David Lyncheski | Discussion: Websites

I am making icons for people for FREE!
Right now I am still working on the site, but it should be up soon.
If you want icons email me at Email

In the subject put:
[Help] for help
[Icons] for free icon creation
[Q] For a question


In the email right what icons you want, what help you need, or your question

I see you've spent some time making changes to your site visually, but unfortunately, most of the links still do not work. I would suggest getting the site to work better before you spend time changing the graphics. If you continue to present a site that doesn't work, is visually unappealing, and starts on a page that has no graphics at all, what makes you think customers are going to want any of your icons, even if for free? Just my two cents, David.

Are those Vista Icons that YOU made, or did you just put them on your site for others to download?

Ported them from what to what? They're icons right? What's to port?

The green is a little hard on the eyes.

So you define porting as extracing images from a dll? Sheesh.
I'm not sure I'd take pride in that.

{Is that legal?}

Suggestions is what you are going to get. Here or from people that traffic your site. Did you think a website filled with artists, graphic designers, and website designers of any level would 'not' coment or make suggestions?

I've been watching you progress with this site you're building. I have been working on one and have no expertise at all in the area. But I think I know enough not to post links for it til it's exactly what I want and as good as I can get it. Just in the short time since you first posted, you have shown that you can do better with that site, and I personally think you can still do better. That's a vote of confidence, not sarcasm.

I would start by not posting 'ported', 'extracted' or 'un-original' works. Especially without permissions.

So would I.

Again, irrespective of your intent with this thread, if you wish anyone to actually take you up on your offer of icon making then you had better show far more expertise with graphics [site] and content [NOT 'stolen' icons].

Better to hear it here than through Microsoft's lawyers...

You are also redistributing Microsoft's logos you downloaded from their web page (read the guidelines there)

Taken from Microsoft's Logos Guidelines

The logos may not be copied, distributed or used apart from the article or broadcast commentary about the company or the applicable product or service. For example, you may not redistribute the logo in hard copy or electronic form or make it available online for others to copy.

Advice given from personal experience is the best advice to give! Jafo,if MS read this they would be happy indeed to see your enlightening philosophy on the dissemination of unauthorised content. Seen lots of sites where people are now trying to gain profit from the use of the Vista icons. Glad to see that the guy here isnt trying to justify his theft by claiming tht everyone else is doing it too.Reminds me of the kids I teach....where the victim of bullying turns around to become the bully of smaller kids. Hysterical.
