Feature Request (scope=branding)

Intro

  • I was going to lie to you in the User Story below because it added humour to the sentence.
  • Ultimately, I didn't want to start our relationship like that.
  • So, I spent 40 more minutes writing a TLDR, and then a TLDR to the TLDR, and now reformatting this intro.
  • In all seriousness, it's taken a full hour (1h23m45s).
  • Some 🐥 became 🍗 in that time.
  • ...and now 💩 in the time it's taken me to make the very difficult financial calculations below.
  • My rate is typically CAD $4,569.00 per hour, very reasonable in today's Open Source marketplace.
    • * 1.3958h ~= $6,377.41
    • which, for you, my ultra cool good looking and popular friend, I'll lower to just CAD $6,069.69.
    • Pay or else...(don't forget snitches get stitches)... 👊☠️🚑 ... who am I kidding...
  • it's yours here tonight for 🎙️ FREE NINETY NINE 🔊!
  • So, dim the lights, grab a drink, maybe some grass, and sit-yo-ass-down while I tell you the tail of the Little Git Project that Could Have Awesome Branding, who had 0 Issues, until @GregSweats (me! Your author this fine evening) showed up with his project polluting ways, greedily posting his nonsense to real projects in an effort to refine his Issue Creation/User Story Creation skillllllzzzzzzzzzz. 💤💤💤

TLDR; for the TLDR; (HYPER SUMMARY)

As an Overly Verbose Stoner
....a.k.a. 0$$-h4x0r-3l1t3-M$-hating-mofo-but-wait-they-own-GH-and-VSCode-and-OMG-I-am-a-M$-fanboy ...
I saw dll, which, naturally, my brain auto-completed to "dill pickle emoji" 🥒.
I nearly-instinctively filed a GitHub Issue to suggest it.
I saw 0 Issues and thought "how can that be? I must change this! I must make an impact! I might get a GitHub 'first issue created' badge (if there is such a thing)".
So I filed the ticket that has now taken an hour almost to write (1-hour and 30-minutes).
and now hope you will respond, ye "Good ol' Simple Works Farms 🥒🧑‍🌾" ;).

TLDR;

I was getting 420'd and rewrote the entire story down to this little tidbit:

As an Overly Verbose Stoner, I saw dll and thought of "dill", then thought "dill pickle".

likely because of the two bags of Dill Pickle chips I bought this week which I look at each night as I prepare myself to compare the two, despite being different brands, and one being rippled while the other is smooth, like a pickle.

...then thought "dill pickle emoji"
...then thought it's worth a cheeky GitHub Issue
...and then thought you should "Embrace the DiLL"

and now think I might have wasted like....40 minutes of my life at this point....I hope this hits your funny bone 🦴

Original, Overly Long User Story, Might not have even finished it...

(although is the one above that much shorter?)

  • As a New-to-you "User?"
  • who is a fan of emojis
  • I have started using custom folder icons in windows for things like:
    • captures (obs-recordings),
    • screenshots,
    • pictures,
    • 🚫 Screenshots
      • (a duplicate of screenshots, within a similar folder structure, but on a different drive...another reason I need icons...to help quickly mark which folders are what)
    • etc.
  • I've run out of even-close-to-meaning-something icons in the default Windows DLL.
    • ...and was heart-broken seeing Windows 11 didn't appear to change any icons in that DLL 💔
    • ...and crushed there was nothing visually distinguishable enough to mean anything for more than 3-4 folders 😢
  • I finally took the dozen or so keystrokes it took to search for "windows folder dll" 🔎
  • and then very quickly refining to "windows folder dll custom" 🕵️
    • ...to avoid all the dev docs and other DLL spammy nonesense.
  • I saw an oasis in the desert of SEO Optimized DLL garbage selling boner pills 💀!
  • That oasis, was you! It was always you, dear (let me scroll up to see the package name again since I've been writing this Issue for like 20mins now when I should be getting 420'd instead)
  • Dear dll-icons by simple-works, so modest I don't even know your Author's name since it's not in the URL and I have not looked at the Git Commits, just eagerly scrolled to the main part of the beautiful [README.md] 🤓

Y'all Come Back Now, Ya Here 👩‍🌾

Sincerely yours,

@GregSweats
