yeah, nice marketing trick . Look at AX-Cursors, same license, not updated since 1998... I hope IW will not end like that.

There are free alternatives like IcoFX, Greenfish Icon Editor or Pixelformer, which are nearly as good as IW, and the commercial alternatives like RealWorld Icon Editor kick IW's ass. But IW still has the the Image Objects and thats a big +.

Would you guys say this is the BEST icon pack to get over some of the other stock icons you can find on the net?

$60 seems cheap compared to the $300 others are charging, not to mention you have these 'objects' with which you can create seemingly infinite icons.

It's not an icon pack. This is an icon workshop-type application to create, view, edit, etc.

But regardless, this software is the best of its kind. I used to use Microangelo and once I found this, it's all I use.

But don't you get access to a bunch of icons once you are a registered user? Does Axialis offer an icon pack in addition to this software?

Why would it? Look, Axialis is a simple, to-the-point, yet classy Icon manipulation/creation utility. It utilizes every feature you can think of to give you the absolute best results for your icons in minutes. It includes a library and everything you need to manage your work and collections as well. I give it 5 / 5
