so if i make a wallpaper with a digicam foto and i did the foto with my 
kodak camera that saves the pictures in a kodak format on the flashdist 
i have to make this data free because there are more picturinformation 
in it. and just the simple png image does not count as source? if i ake 
the wallpaper lgpl. maybe a bit stupid but hope you understand my 
point.

i would say for a pixel iconset the sources are pixel images and no 
vector images how the artist makes the pixel images is his work... and 
if he will do a svg icon set the svg files are the source.
