All the best.

Thank you for your response. I have enough experience with the GIMP that I could design my own icons with a PSD guide. If you released a PSD guide for each icon set your users could design their own icons and there wouldn’t be a pressing need every time a new social media service becomes popular.

I believe that a great revenue model for your company would be to release free icon sets but charge a reasonable price (say $20US) for each PSD guide. Most of your casual customers would be satisfied with the existing icon sets, serious and professional users could ustilize the PSDs, and your company would gain revenue while reducing the demand on your designers. Finally, your designers would be motivated to release PSD guides for all of your icon sets due to the added revenue. It would be a win-win for all.

Thank you,

I have used your Magic Marker icons on my personal weblog for over a year. I have even designed other aspects of the site to match those icons and I would love to continue using these icons in the future. However, I am now limited by the fact that your company does not appear to be producing new social networking icon sets for new services. I need to add a Google Plus icon to my site, but without a new icon or a PSD guide explaining how to design the Magic Marker icons myself with Photoshop (or in my case GIMP), I may have to switch to another icon set from another provider and completely re-design my blog. I really do not want to have to do this.

I understand that you have provided these icon sets as a free service. I greatly appreciate this and I do not want to make it seem as though I am demanding more free work from you now. I would be willing to pay a reasonable price for the guide on how to design the icons myself, or on a per-icon basis, but having no options available – free or paid – greatly diminishes the usefulness of the product you have already created.

Thank you for your time,

We do plan to have PSDs and tutorials available for all our different icon styles. The psd for magic marker icons isn’t available yet, but below are links to the PSDs that are ready and can be modified if you wish to create new icons to fit your sites:
