Well, English not being my native language, I use whatever seems right at the moment. I often wonder how do native speakers perceive my "creative" use of English.

Wait, what? You are not a native English speaker? You fooled me!  :)

Not always true. I live in an area with a lot of immigrants, and their kids are born here, are native speakers of English and plenty have foreign sounding names.

vlastimil, just want to thank you again for the free license for your RealWorld Icon Editor. I'm working with it right now and although what I do with it is certainly far from its capabilities I have to say that I find it bloody excellent!  :Thmbsup:

p.s. I know it's not the right place to ask :(, but well...
When I copy a certain region from one icon to another, it would be really helpful if, when I paste that region, it would get pasted at the exact same position where it was in the source icon. Can I do that somehow?

I do not think so. If you have selected part of the image, it is copied simply as a normal image, without any additional information. When pasting it, it is always placed to the top left corner of the visible area. You would have to copy it with an additional free space - that would be possible if you added the top left pixel to the selection (hold SHIFT when selecting to add things to the selection (if it is not a floating selection)), but it seems kind of weird. Maybe the operation you are trying to do can be accomplished by some other method.
