    Tried re-sizing my usual icon in photoshop and it looks pretty, well, shit.... so think I'm gonna have to re-draw a pixel-at-a-time to get it looking acceptable.... stay tuned.....

    Steal Mark's? Man, who would do that?!

    Dude.... I don't think the GPL extends that far.... that's just darn cheeky....

    Mi new icon in color ;)image

    Nice one cmacias! :) The funny thing is, my original icon didn't say "Nav" on the forehead, but on o8 some goof started using my icon as his own, so I put the NAV on it so that everyone would know he was stealing mine.

    FLC, lol, that software is pretty useless if you already know what you're doing, or in some cases if you don't but can figure it out. Favicons these days can be made from gif or png files :D yeah, looking closely between yours and vans i noticed that as well and at a high resolution, it just looks like a hair highlight which to me is no big deal. I just found it funny. Thanks to you and Van, then me, a new trend has started, Now if someone jacks my baldy icon, it will prove I am indeed a clone. Otherwise I just have clones of my own. Damn, wouldn't that be scary?

  • jonezyjonezy New

    "The funny thing is, my original icon didn't say "Nav" on the forehead, but on o8 some goof started using my icon as his own, so I put the NAV on it so that everyone would know he was stealing mine."

    I've a slight feeling that was probably me...atleast at some point during o8.
  • MarkMark Vanilla Staff
    Yeah. I think it was. You goof :P
  • FLCFLC New
