Cool, the icons can only be used as you see them, as the flattened small square, no psd has been included with the theme, and I'm not charging for it. I'll send u $12 tommorrow, hopefully I'll get a few donations to help! Cheers

Hey. I gave it some thought last night and I decided that I can't charge you for the icons. Much as I want to enforce the license and protect the copyright, it' not your fault that someone else stole and misrepresented the icons. I just don't feel right about taking money from you for them. I'd prefer to be compensated for any usage of my work, but it's not you who should be paying up. Besides, it's not like you used them in a project that you're profiting from. If you used them in a project that you were paid for, I might feel differently about charging you for them. But since it's an iphone theme, I'm inclined to just let this one go.
As long as the icons are only used in this theme, let's just leave it at that. If you wanted to use them in some other project, then that's a different story, and feel free to contact me about something like that or if you need some stock icons or other graphics in the future.

The complete set of 260 icons goes for $49, but I also sell them in smaller sets at istockphoto for $12. I'd be fine with just $12 for a license that covers all of the icons you used, for usage in a theme. You can get it to me via PayPal at mikemcd@openpathdesign.com. Once it's paid, I'll send the license agreement. The only issue there might be with the usage is the possibility that the icons could be removed from the theme. As long as the icons can't be easily extracted and reused in any way, the basic license covers you.
Sorry to put you through this. It's just a common problem these days and I need to enforce the licensing as strictly as possible.
Thanks
