- Now this is just silly. Verry few programmers bother to make icons for all
- three packages. <ECS, MWB, and NewIcons> So, you just set up a directory of
- neat icons, and when you get a program that has icons that dont match, copy
- one over... I like MWB. It has a good trade between looks and speed. My
- friend likes NewIcons... So, we do a lot of Icon cleanup... Big deal. I
- would much rather have a program with an ugly icon <that I can fix> than ugly
- code. <that is unfixable>
