FlashDen Authors Selling in the Six Figures – Introducing the Blue Steel Paw

Back in August 2006 when we launched FlashDen, one of the jobs I had was to make a set of paw icons to show how much an author has sold. We made icons for sales all the way up to $100,000. Today I had to make a new icon.

The new icon , which we have dubbed “Blue Steel” after Zoolander, is for authors who have sold between $100,000 and $250,000 worth of items. And we have a few top authors who are about to cross over into this new category of author.

I’m so proud to know that FlashDen is providing these levels of income to independent Flash authors around the globe, particularly given some of the current global economic doom and gloom.

It also makes me wonder just how soon before I have to create another paw icon? More than a quarter of a million through FlashDen? All of a sudden that doesn’t sound so impossible after all!
