using one of my icons?  great!  I love you for it!  and I would love it even more if someone saw you using the icon, liked it, and had some way to figure out who made it, so even more people will use my icons!

again, I really do love it when people use my icons.  I wouldn't make them otherwise!  if I don't get comments I tend to stop making posts because I figure no one is using them, and I'm just wasting my time.

so: more comments = more icons.  simple math!

many of my icons are textless, but that does not mean they're bases.  I like my icons just the way they are.  if you think you can do it better, do it for yourself! :P

really this is all for my ego.  when I see a lot of watchers, I feel better about myself and am more inspired to make icons. :)
