isn't max/jmax look&feel copyrighted in any way?
Does IRCAM have some sort of patent on it's 3D look, like Apple for it's trash can? Like jMax itself, it's probably copylefted, but it's unclear if there could be legal issues with importing specific graphical features from a GPL software (jMax) to a BSD software (PD).
Actually, an update, it seems it's not GPL anymore, it's now LGPL. Possibly since version 4.x, not sure... I think it's since jMax/fts became embeddable in other software, as libfts.so ... (btw, can Pd do this?)
Anyhow, I got permission (by email) to use the icons, from François Déchelle, lead developer of jMax. Mathieu Bouchard http://artengine.ca/matju
Please, do not use the icons in any case, i think they should look different. I agree with guenther who wrote:
A big NO! to the icons you used, I take it as "an example - that will be changed for the real thing" :) I mean, there should be enough creativity potential to design our own.
