News

  • Welcome to the Mid-Atlantic CRM Blog, formerly owned and operated by Ben Vollmer, a CRM legend ;). My name is Chris Kahl and Ben has asked me to take over the care and feeding of this most valuable resource. Like Ben, my job is to help partners and customers with Microsoft CRM in the Eastern US. This blog is a great and searchable information source. Feel free to subscribe to the RSS feed to stay current with Dynamics CRM. Any tools discussed here are for DEMO only. You should NOT use these in a production environment unless you test them. Microsoft Support DOES NOT support these tools. Everything here is provided as-is with no warranty.
Source of Icons to help spruce up your custom entities

Tired of your icons looking  lame? When you create a new entity, you can associate a new icon with it. Well, it has been amazing to me to see the number of people who leave the default one there. In building a demo system over the weekend, I found some pretty cool ones you can use for free. Check them out and stop making your system look “default.”
Enjoy!

I like the silk ones from this series: http://www.famfamfam.com/lab/icons/

Great Variety of them are also available here: http://www.iconarchive.com/

Some of the licenses vary and some cost money, some are free, some are for non commercial work only, etc… So be sure to read the licenses…
