[Lazarus] MS SQL Connector Icon and ms icon, logo, images, ( you name it ) license.

[Dimitrios Chr. Ioannidis]

Hi all,

   today i checked out, after a long time, lazarus trunk ( i usually 
work with fixes 2 6 ) and after i choose the sqldb tab, i noticed the ms 
sql icon. Because i didn't like it much and had some free time, i opened 
Gimp and tried to do something different.

After LacaK2's comment in the 0021578 bug which states
> For graphic for MS SQL, look at 
> http://www.microsoft.com/web/media/icons/sql-icon.png [^ 
> <http://www.microsoft.com/web/media/icons/sql-icon.png>]
> I do not know if we can use graphic motif or there are any licence 
> restrictions

i googled a little and found this 
http://www.microsoft.com/About/Legal/EN/US/IntellectualProperty/Permissions/Default.aspx#ENE 
and quoting :

> Microsoft product icons are the thumbnail-sized images indicating that 
> a Microsoft product has been installed on your operating system. 
> *Icons may not be used* in advertising, in books and other printed 
> matter, on clothing or other promotional items, in online and Internet 
> locations,*in software applications*, in television programs, in 
> commercials, in movies, or on videotape.

Just for your information.

regards,


PS: The image tmysql55connection.png doesn't exist in the design dir.
