Ask HN: Where to get icons for virtual gifts?
5 points by jasonlbaptiste on March 4, 2009 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments
Hey everyone,

We're adding virtual gifts to Ramamia, and looking for the best way to get icons for Virtual Gifts. Is there a good place to get icons (for cheap) that can legally be resold as virtual gifts? Any experience with specific designers or design sites (ie-99 designs) for this?

PS- If you're a designer that specializes in this, shoot us an email: founders@ramamia.com . PG is probably right in that it's something worth paying someone good.



I wouldn't be surprised if it was worth paying a designer to make them. They're supposed to seem valuable.


That's the route we'll go. We've looked at services that offer virtual goods as a platform, but they own the content. This means if they go out of business, our users lose what they paid for.

Trying to see if any other HN users have designers they've used that do really well with designing gifts.


I've used these design contests from the following forums. You'll be surprised of their quality. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=94 http://www.webmaster-talk.com/graphic-design-contests/


You guys look into someone like Viximo instead of inventing your own system from the ground up?
