Description

hey all.

was wondering if we could have a change in the default launcher icon for Pidgin. my version is starting to get a bit outdated. Jakub Steiner did this amazing crazy bird: http://www.flickr.com/photos/63781227@N00/3194051020 23:41 (based on my original work)

I like the new logo, but the color of the bird should be a bit closer to what it is now.

Changed 11 months ago by hylke

I agree. I'm sure we can make that happen. More like the colours in the logo.

Any chance of getting this in for 2.8?

I do like the icon change.

Is there a reason that this set of icons contains a speech bubble behind the pigeon when the current icon doesn't? I'm not sure I like that for a logo.

I'm also not a fan of the flare/haze at the bottom of the icons.

Other than that though I think they are nice.

@deryni to prevent any confusion: these are application icons, not a logo replacement.

Yeah, sorry misspeak/mistype on my part. I still meant what I said though. The current launcher icon doesn't have the chat bubble and the new one does and I'm not sure I like that change.

I could understand the "people don't know what pidgin is but understand what a chat bubble is" idea but I'm not sure I really think that's necessary here.

@deryni the launcher icons always had speech bubbles behind them. just not the 16x16 version. The new 16x16 is much crispier anyway.
