I'm glad SOMEONE else caught that (and said something first). ;-) Mr.
Davis, speaking as a third-party while also including a
self-incriminating URL in your sig isn't particularly bright.
The idea is a good one - it benefits the development community
because it's cheap and easy, but might I make two suggestions?
1 - Launch an HONEST ad campaign. Nobody likes underhanded tactics.
2 - Obtain more icons. WAY more. Nobody likes looking like everybody
else.
Do these two things and I could see myself as a regular customer.
After all, software developers *usually* aren't also good artists. Any
good graphics designer will rub that in any developers face any day.
How do I know? I'm a developer with a graphic designer friend who has
worked on many large corporate image projects. He reminds me of that
fact daily. ;-) In an auto-responder. "I'm a better artist than you."
is prepended to every message. Sick ...

If any of you guys are looking for toolbar icons you should check out
ShopIcons. They sell toolbar icons individually for only $5 and you
can use them in your Cocoa applications.
I bought a few that I use in my own applications and it gives your
stuff a really nice professional look. Usually it's better to get
original icons designed, but if you want to save money you can check
ShopIcons and get the icon for $5.
