    How awesome is that?! Gratz man.

    Just keeps getting weirder!

    Today I got this email:
    Hi RobA.

    My name is XXXXXXXXXXXX and I'm a single iPhone developer from Sweden.
    I'm a big fan of your PD Modern Compass Rose. So much in fact that I've made a small iPhone compass app using it.

    Today Apple called me and asked if they can use my app in a commercial, so I thought that you might be interested in making your name visible in some way. It's not 100% sure yet it will happen.
    I'm not receiving any money for this, just free publicity for my app. I have no idea what the commercial will look like, just that my app will be visible in it.

    Even though it's a public domain image, I want you to benefit from this as a designer.

    ...

    Looking forward to hear from you!

    Huh!

    Dude!! Is this site just the best or what! That rocks how such a simple thing as a mapping challenge can turn into a globally recognized object. Congrats!
    Bill Stickers is innocent! It isn't Bill's fault that he was hanging out in the wrong place.

    Please make an effort to tag all threads. This will greatly enhance the usability of the forums.
