Be honest on this one please. You'd do me a great favor to give me your opinion this time.

I'd probably cap it at $15. But I dunno, maybe $12 or $13 is ideal.

Turn up on your doorstep
Feeling like roadkill
Tasting like postage stamps
And when I touch you
You fold up like an envelope
With everything I ever wrote
Pouring out of your mouth.

I have quite a standard opinion about icon prizes and it's between 5-10$ and maybe up to 15 if there's something extra to it. Like animation or pixel art.

0 to 5 bucks Personally I'd find that a bit insulting to give a artist that rate for that detailed of work. 15 to 20 sounds reasonable given the detail of the work. You could go lower if they request multiple icons.

Since it is something so small, I'd be willing to pay $5-$10.

FAQ #1253: What can I do to get quick page views, without paying to advertise?
:iconsoulhunter-amras:
Meiner Meinung nach bezahlt man ja für den Aufwand.
Wie lange brauchst du für sowas? Da könnte man eine fairere Summe nennen, denke ich.

Ja, ich weiß woher ich stamme:
Ungesättigt gleich der Flamme
glühe und verzehr' ich mich.
Licht wird alles, was ich fasse,
Kohle, alles, was ich lasse -
Flamme bin ich sicherlich!

15 - 20. I'm quite torn, actually. I am aware that even something as "insignificant" as an icon still takes quite a lot of time and effort for the artist to get looking good. However I am equally of the thought that icons are a very ephemeral sort of thing, almost considered by some as "disposable".

However I would err on the side of paying the artist what they are worth. And realistically even at around $20 that is still a very good price for the work that goes into it when you consider what a professional artist would charge.
