Well no offense, but when I need to draw an icon for an app that I'm  
writing I'm seldom in the mood to sit around and write MORE code so I can  
do so. We "get" to extend it? Good clean fun if you don't have to do  
something else for a living.

I can appreciate it being extensible, but it should have come with enough  
"extensions" to really replace the utility it's replacing.

Thanks for your tips and your sample extension though.

Gordon
