In case people didn't see the announcement:
It really really sucks for me to do this since I don't think it fits in the "Icon Day" spirit to renege on the free icons.
But currently I have about 50+ free icons to do and only a little over 20 donations. I've made about 125$. That's it. 125$ for 75 icons is REALLY SHITTY.
I know this kind of thing is a crap shoot, but I didn't expect such high volume of requests over donations. It is not worth the time, or the money, for me to do that much work. Not with my schedule.
I totally understand wanting a free icon. I have taken advantage of a few icon days myself, but the sheer volume I'm faced with vs. the lack of reward is too much. It was my mistake to not put a cap on freebies in the first place.
Icon Days will be open until Friday night, but I will only be accepting donations. All requests are cancelled.
