Looks like I got the Dresden send!
I’ll leave the whispering to others to share the wealth.

We're still having some ongoing server hardware issues on the site. We hope to have those fixed within a week, but until then we're operating with some sticks and bubble gum to help us through. It's not us, it's busted hardware. : (

Yay—thanks, Josh!
@gswd: I dunno yet. This is the hard part—deciding on an icon set(s). I think I’ll leave it overnight to decide. I’ve got a few projects that could use some nicer icons, so this is a good time for it.
debbye on Jul 11, 2007
Grant - are you saying that our free icons are not nice?

And congratulations to Debbye, my 7th whisperer! $15 has been added to your IconBuffet bank. And thanks to everyone who whispered.

@debbye: not at all. There are some great sets here.
However, the free deliveries do not include (for the most part) the sorts of icons that are in the paid delivery sets. Specifically CMS and blog relevant icons (the Bangor, Mallow and Nuuk Buzz sets are quite cool—but they have more ‘flavour’ than would be appropriate for my current projects).
debbye on Jul 11, 2007
Wow! thank you master Josh =)
shopping …

Oh, BTW: My above “Yay—thanks” post was in response to the earlier Josh post. The posts in between came while I was writing that reply. I’m certainly not saying yay to the busted hardware…

@Grant - i hope you know i'm kidding! :D
just some "new" blood!
debbye on Jul 11, 2007

@grantneufeld's multiple responses
Arrrr, once ag'in the Chefmatic 3000® microwave/server/icon cloner has stuttered and replicated the "Say something..." box. This is directly related to the chefs popping heinzelman's corn avatar while the spinning Ajax thingy is Lost In Space Time Tunnel trying to cross the international date line. Research of this problem is what inspired the chef iconmaster to create Marseilles Chronology. At least that is what me monkey told me.
iqon on Jul 11, 2007
Aye, the clone cops cleaned up. I hope they left the original. Beware of cyberly replicated comments.
debbye on Jul 11, 2007
Congrats Grant!
i guess tomorrow, i get to spend tokens & cash!
@iqon - you should become a presidential candidate, you make no sense!
mik on Jul 11, 2007
Hmm, iqon makes sense to me. Should I be committing myself to an institution?
Will they have IB there?
iqon on Jul 11, 2007
RE: debbye's avatar

Think I'll be joining you there mik. I'll quite happily go so long as they have broadband and IB. ;-)

Arrrr, my Chefmatic 3000® remarks referred to grantneufeld's comment multipling faster than ninjas at a free sushi bar then disappearing once the bait, I mean sushi was gone.
(me "Lost In Space Time Tunnel" reference is proof childhood TV turned a mind full of mush to a lump of clay)
