I am in 100% agreement. Now I have a question about displaying the licensing terms within LiveCode. Once the library stacks are in place and accessible from the Development > Image Library menu, wouldn't it be nice if the stack itself had a link to the webpage of the original work? Or, to open the associated folder containing the licenses? Also, when you insert an icon from a library into a stack, it would be a pretty cool feature to have a comment of credit automatically inserted at the top of the stack or card script. ˜Roger _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
