Wouldnt it be cool if the wineskin devs put in pre-made icons? icons tend to take a while to make. there can be a slight watermark saying wineskin so people will look it up through google to see what it is and might attract more people :)

...Do you know how much work (and hard drive space) that this would take? It'd be a huge download for Winery.
No. Just no.
This is a terrible idea.

If you want icons, and are too lazy to make 'em yourself, then just use icons on Google.

Bad idea  . But a good idea would be for wineskin winery to automatically convert png and jpg files into icns so people don't have to .  :D

I'm pretty sure doh123 has way too much to do with wineskin that she won't bother with adding icons to it either.
Since wineskin is LGPL means she would have to use graphics that aren't copyrighted and had to make all the icons herself.
Since Wineskin follows the LGPL license it's really important that everything that is used is free (free as in free to use as you like).

I also think that suggestions for Wineskin features should go on the Wineskin site, although doh123 is on pt every day I still think she wanna keep most of the Wineskin development on the Wineskin site.

Yeah, I think that the icons should just be made yourself. Gives a more personal touch ;)
