Thinger icons needed

YO! Darkain here. ive been coding away for a while now on RM-X and DeJaVU Meter. Only one slight problem here, have any of you noticed their thinger icons?

RM-X no longer has a thinger icon at all in it's latests build! and DeJaVU is using a krappy generic icon thats issued with the SDK. I NEED HELP!!

i am curious to know if anyone will be willing to help me out here. my art skills arent all quite there. the old RM-X icon is my avatar, but it was something simple i cooked up using paint.

will ya'all be willing to give it a shot to see if ya can come up with somethin a lil better?

I'll try to attach it even though it's not a "valid file extention." If that doesn't work, do you think you could find somewhere to host it? I could send it to you on irc

psst... hey, guess what? i just might release RM-X updates sometime in a week or less... im still waiting to see if there are other good possible icons out there.

and for that one icon that was already posted, is there going to be a 40x40 (i think this is thinger size, isnt it) version of it?

well, this is a screen shot i took the other day of a little progress from RM-X. what does everyone think?

btw: im thinking about having RM-X use a customizable thinger icon, this way the user can select the one they want.

also, i still dont have an icon for DeJaVU Meter. if anyone would be willing to supply one for this, i would really much like that.

I guess the only question I can raise is...

Should RM-X have a thinger icon at all? It sounds like it should have a Preferences page, and then be done with it. Components should really only link in the Thinger in my opinion when the component is going to have a lot of user interaction beyond setting it up once and letting it work its magic.

Just a thought.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

the RM-X configuration is too complex to be places in the preferances window. there just isnt enough room there for everything i am working on. so i created my own window a little bit larger. and to access this window, you can either use the thinger or preferances window. in my prefs page that i got, it has a button to open the RM-X config window, but i would also like it accessable via the thinger for simplicity.

one of the most common uses of RM-X is for its gamepad support, and its nice to be able to have easy access to RM-X, so you can go in there and enable/disable the gamepads so they dont comflict with the games.
