#2These are a dime a dozen, and they all suffer from the same misunderstanding. Putting colour on pre-made generic icons does not a logo make.
You cannot simply grab an icon from a pack and have it registered as a logo or expect it to properly serve its design and business goal of being a unique identifier for your brand.

No need to apologize, some people are just grumpy assholes.

Scamming wasn’t implied at all, you made a huge leap. The point is rather that this doesn’t create logos, which are something specific and well defined. There is nothing wrong with making a tool to list some icons and give them colour, but they’re not logos.
You have icons in there for religious symbols, well-recognised indicators like RSS and network signal, currencies, and more. None of those would be admissible as a logo, and they wouldn’t be remotely good at their job.
