Title
Permanent Members and Icon Space

Short, concise description of the idea
Permanent Members should get more icon space

Full description of the ideaI think that there should be a perk for permanent members and we should get more icon space. After all, what is the bonus for that? We should get at least 500 spots or some significant amount more than

As a Permanent user, I not only agree with what others have said above, but I will also be blunt:

What in the world do you need 500 icons for?! I'm barely using 1/5 of that (or 1/2 of my allotment) and don't intend to use more.

I'm not a permanent user, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. I have a hard time deciding with only 20! 500-- I'd spend more time searching than posting!

There are quite a few of us who could fill 500 with no trouble. I know that may seem unreal to those not really 'into' icons, but it's true!

I don't support an increase to 500, but I do get the request. If you're not into icons for all occasions, you'll never understand why some people are. End of story.

[jewelianna]

No, I totally get "an icon for all occasions!' I just don't have that many occasions. :)

I'm into icons as much as the next person. In fact, I already have several for a given occasion, etc. But...

1. They're hard for me to keep track of.
2. I don't even use 1/4 of them most of the time. A good number of them are just for show more than anything else and are thus wasting space, and...
3. The more icons I have, the longer it takes for my allpics.bml and editpics.bml pages to load on my PC, let alone my mobile phone's browser. (Yes, I know, I know, my PC sucks and everything.) =P

Yeah, I have icons for lots of occasions!

Except that most of those occasions are years old, and unlikely to repeat, so the icons are taking up space.

Luckily, I'm a permanent accountholder, so I still have more space for icons than I know what to do with, and more space gets added every few months!

By the way. On topic response to OP: no thanks, for all the reasons everyone already stated.
