I don't know about easier. It certainly is more powerful - which means you have to jump around in hoops in PSP to get it do do what you can do in PS.

Plus I don't think anyone is saying that making 30 icons (of any quality) takes time. Individual ones however... well unless you aren't really sure what you are doing in the first place, 3 mins should be the max. This of cource only applies to static ones (or ones where the animation is nothing more than a couple of frames).

Even taking animation into account tho - the icon I'm posting with now is a 2minute long animation (the intro to the game Another World from '91). Getting that into a 40kb animation required about 10mins work. Most of that was working out how to capture the video from DOSBox... the rest was pretty quick.

I agree that the work work people put into the icon the more likely they will want credit - but to act like they have done some great work of art (which most do) is rather.. well.. it creates arguments like you've had with other people in this post. It just pisses people off. 3mins an icon is still not very long, especially when its just a bunch of text and some fade/gradient effects on a screen cap.

I've had quite a few people grab the icons I've made - and the only ones I've got annoyed about it when it is my photo (my default icon is of my own eye - but people have still ganked it).

I don't think anyone objects to people being credited for making an icon (even if they aren't credited), but its the way in which many people go about it that creates hostility.
