Windcatcher,
Just letting you know I havent started on any icons yet. Been busy past week tracking down some parasite in OK who thought he could steal and get away with my money after I did a purchase from his website on December 5th. The guy lives in OK and I live in WV he recieved my payment on Dec. 5th and emailed me saying he recieved it and that he would send out next day priority mail with tracking number. I email him back asking for the tracking number, but he doesnt respond. I wait 6 days (because I trade alot thru mail with friends in NM & CA and know priority mail travels from there to me in 5 or 6 business days). Nothing came, Emailed the guy heard nothing. Emailed the guy each day it didnt arrive, never got a reply from the guy. Note that not counting the 5th, 25 business days has gone by package never arrived, never heard from this guy, and he never sent the tracking#.
Enraged, I call up a few friends who make yearly subscriptions for unlimited background & dmv checks. When done, I emailed this guy with: his full name, real address, private mail box address, age, phone number, phone service provider, ss#, license plate number, make/model/year of vehicle, his height/weight/eye&hair color as appears on drivers license, a weblink to googlemaps pinpointing his real address and his private box locations, mapquest driving directions from basically the WV state line to his real address in OK. Then I stated if I didnt hear from him within 24 hours I was paying him a visit.
Less than 8 hours he emails me saying "Fine! I will send you your money back via certified mail with tracking number, leave me alone and dont email me again!" Next day, he emails again saying " Here is the tracking number: 7004 2510 0006 0707 1176 , I sent your money via money order and as certified mail so be home to claim it. Stay away from me!" This was issued on Jan 5th so now I just have to type that tracking number in usps website daily to check on its status. I hate people who try to scam you during online purchases. And what pisses me off even more is when they try to rip you around christmas.
I will start on those icons once this mess gets sorted out. Just wanted to give you a heads up.
