I am not sure that this article will ever be encyclopedic in nature. I have continued to add iconographers. Let me know what you think. [[User:Joe Rodgers|Joe]] 20060118

I'm a little uncomfortable with the main body of this article being essentially an advertisement (probably cut and pasted, too). I have no problem with something of a web directory being listed here, but unless we're talking about persons who would normally make it into an encyclopedia (e.g., Andrei Rublev, Theophanes the Greek or Photios Kontoglou), I think perhaps no more than a link with a short explanation is really necessary. Thoughts? —[[User:ASDamick|—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!)]] 22:22, 16 Jun 2005 (EDT)

OK, I was thinking a little along these lines. I wasn't sure of the original intent of the article. I added the links I had because I saw this as more of a repository of links to buy modern icons. Anyone else? --Joe Rodgers 23:46, 16 Jun 2005 (EDT)
