   Thanks for the reply and stats! Yeh I actually just got off a call with a couple people I met because of that post, so that's always fun and different :) Any plans to make something similar to vim.so but for different platforms?

   Thanks for the context and background. I believe one of the founders has commented in this thread, so I'll let them respond directly to that feedback. I think you're right, though, regarding side-stepping things. I'd really l

   Thanks for the context. I assume the original question was meant theoretically. My response in based, in part, on the fact that I really love Noun Project. They're an amazing company, have a great product, and have some phenomenal supp

   Yep that's a good idea. I do some internal tagging when something is a brand logo, so I could use that data to put a little notice in the Preview modal that it's likely trademarked :)

   Whoops I intro'd a bug a few minutes earlier. Should be fixed now. If still happening, do a hard refresh and it'll work again :)

    Haha fair enough. I like ducks, and thought it was a memorable name that had the domain available :)

    Thanks for the links. I know of icones which uses another service. Really rad, but wanted to go a slightly different way. Already have IconPark included ( http://iconduck.com/sets/iconpark-icon-set ). Adding awsicons set

    Haha send me an email: onassar@gmail.com I've got a cool, simple UI in mind for the flow, but want to hear more about how you envision the icon class idea working.

    Thanks for the notes mrkwse. I try to show copy like the following when trademarks show up: > Naturally, trademarks apply to any brand icons or logos above. That means that you can use them in practice (for example, linking to the respec

    Yep; those icons can be used freely, however Trademarks apply. Generally, that means you can use it (for example, link to Duck Duck Go), but you probably couldn't sell it on t-shirts

    Do you mean from Noun Project? I wouldn't do that (for a couple reasons). The main one, is that I want to always be able to link back directly to the creator's repo and license. It gets a bit meta when people start collecting icon

    Yeh it's tricky. They have some pretty amazing icons and services, and probably one of the most reliable APIs I've worked with. And so, that costs $. It is a bummer, but there's always that trade off I suppose. Hoping Iconduc

    I'm working on that right now. Hoping to have it up later tonight ;)

    Yep I know them very well! They're amazing! I wanted to build something that wasn't so much a product, but more so about the open source community and all the icons. They're a fantastic company and product, though!

    by onassar 6y ago

    Yep. I actually ran into that while using Iconduck to find a link & GitHub icon haha. I had to download it, then view source, etc. I need to figure out an updated preview modal UI to accommodate that and PNG downloading, but it should b

    Haha what I like about those icons is they're actually pretty effective at grabbing attention. That retro/throwback thing. Thanks for the link. Now I gotta find out if they're open source ;)

    Yep! I already have that functionality done, I just haven't gotten around to building a nice UI/UX for that. On it, though.

    Hoping on it. I'm not as familiar with modern approaches to open sourcing the whole platform (I'm a bit of a dinosaur when it comes to development), but in the short term, I'll be open sourcing a ton of data for all the diffe

    Possibly, yeh. Tbh, there's a part of me that really doesn't want to try and productize it. I really love the idea of building an icon service that pulls in as many developers/designers as possible. OS has been a huge part of
