# Buuf

Buuf is an overly ambitous icon set created by digital artist Mattahan. He started making it when GANT had reached it's apex and was starting to decline in popularity. Many routes were considered before the current look of Buuf was decided upon. But the always visionary Mattahan knew that simply expanding Aquarilla, Orangatang, or Aquant wouldn't be enough.

Here the great one (namely, me) shall answer your questions preemptively:

### How the ?%$! is this any different from that other set of yours?

| thinner lines more details looks better at smaller sizes made in Painter therefore, more fun to make it's got a different name too many icons categorized in too many folders. If you can't find one in the logical subfolder be sure to check everywhere else less comprehensible file names, mostly just tv quotes a much better ipod icon a slightly lamer book icon a lot of extras

### Are there two rocket icons?

Yes.

### How do I install this?

I've written up a very thorough tutorial here.

### How come there's no icon for my favorite app?

Because that app sucks. I contend that you suck for liking it. Lame as you are, I'm sure you'll be able to find an icon to suit your needs.

Furthermore, the very purpose of an iconset is to change the default icons to something more pleasing. So changing a blue 'W' to a slightly different blue 'W' is just silly. Change it to a skull, a little black monster with yellow eyes, or even a bloody dagger.

### Ok. So...uh...could I maybe uh...use them on my website/blog/cms/app/shirt/book cover/forehead?

Perhaps.

### I'm not reading all of that. Just give me the gist of it.

It basically means that you are free to alter and redistribute Buuf as you wish. However, you must attribute it thusly:

> Based on icons by Paul Davey aka Mattahan. All rights reserved.

You may NOT use any Buuf icon commercially without my permission.

### In GANT 3, you said that Pixadex 2 was fugly. What are you, stupid?

Well, I actually meant Picasa 2. Pixadex 2 hadn't come out when I wrote that.

### These file names are funny, but familiar. Where have you stolen them from?

Various places including but not limited to The Simpsons, Mitch Hedberg, Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart, Steve Wright, and The Penny Arcade. I also like to incorporate lyrics from my favorite songs. Yo, RZA flip da track...

### So you did all this by yourself?

Yeah pretty much. But special thanks to Andreas Verhoeven for png2ico, without which Buuf would be ~40 mb.

### I have some extra money lying around. Is there anyway I can give it to you?
