Put your IceWeasel icons here! There are also pages for the IceDoveIcon and the IceApeIcon.

K.Mandla

attachment:IceWeasel-KMandla-Original.png

This is the original by K.Mandla -- I prefer IYY's version; I agree that it should be squarer, and I like the idea that the weasel should be bluer, which will make it look "icier." This one sticks to the Tango colors, but aside from that probably needs a little attention to get it within their guidelines. -- K.Mandla

K.Mandla

attachment:IceWeasel-KMandla-Revision.png

A revision -- This is closer to what I like. It's a bit of a cross between SlimDog360's #2 (with the blue-to-white gradients) and IYY's revision (with a squarer shape). I softened the tail a bit (I was looking at weasel tails and decided to make it less "fluffy") and removed the offside eye, which bothered me. This also uses the Gnome globe, which is GNU ... and GNUer is better! Har har. -- K.Mandla

-- This is a winner by my standards. Square, more blue and it uses a GNU image for the globe. Only problem i have is the current image shows up small on my panels compared to everything else, but im sure this will be fixed when its a .svg or whatever.. --Polygon

--I still prefer IIY's version. I don't like the gloss on the globe in this one, and you've lost the sparkle of the weasel's tail. Sorry, but I think this is a recession, rather than a revision...--T Smithe

-- I don't think that blue makes it icier... snow and ice are plain white not blue, it is also harder to see the weasel, since the earth is already blue. --Ferk

Looking at this on another monitor, it's almost too blue. The image of the weasel I traced it off was almost pure white, and I'm wondering if backing off the blue side and making it more white might also make it more distinguishable at smaller sizes. This might just turn into a blue blob at 48x48. -- K.Mandla

Comments: I think this would be the correct one... the icon was the reason of the problem... why to eliminate the icon?, else put firefox icon >,> --Biomega

GStubbs43 #10

attachment:GStubbs10-gino2_resized.png

Original icon is in attachments under GStubbs10-gino2.png (had to be resized)

Comments: -- I prefer this icon, as it uses the GNOME Globe and is released under a GNU Lisence, the others are Tango Globes, under a Creative Commons Lisence --GStubbs43

IIY

attachment:IIY1-iceweasel-icon-mini.png

Square weasel (head and body higher), no glowing nodes, tango colours.

Comments: EDIT: I like k.mandlas now, it has the suggestions i posted here.) I like this one the best, but i also like the blue weasel in SlimDog360's #2, maybe you could just make the weasel in this one blue like slimdogs. --Polygon

original icon can be found at [http://dugnet.com/klown/pics/iceweasel3.png dugnet.com]

Comments: Made from scratch in inkscape, I'm happy to assign whatever license is suitable.

This looks great ... can you put this under tri-license? and provide an svg? Can you make something similar for IceDoveIcon (Thunderbird) and IceApeIcon (SeaMonkey)? mail me at asac@debian.org as we need to push those IceLizards pretty soon.

Umm -- this icon gives me a funny feeling on the inside. It gives a different feel than the Firefox one ... is that weasel humping the Earth? ~ ch4rm

You mean something like this? [http://mik.unpackable.org/humping_iceweasel.gif] Smile :) -- Faceless

I just love this icon. It's the one I'll use personally anyways. --Tribaal

By far the best Big Grin :) -- VincentZekred DateTime(2006-10-10T15:55:09Z)

Holy crap Faceless, that is freaking awesome Funny :)) *golf clap* - MarkRiedesel

It does looks great, although I would need to see a 32x32 versión. Scaling down this one doesnt get a result that great.--Ferk

I still prefer IIY and Kmandala's #2... this icon doesnt look all that great when its scaled down to a icon size and the weasel looks more like a white fox.--Polygon

Faceless' icon should be the throbber for Iceweasel, methinks Smile :-) MarkReidesel's original has the same look and feel as the other Mozilla product logos, which I like. - ChrisLees

Protip: Weasels do not have fox-like ears or fox-like muzzles. Riedesel's submission looks more like an Australian Brushtail Possum. - ChrisBaird

@ChrisBaird - Smaller/pointier chin and shorter/rounder ears? The upper-front part of the mouth is probably too wide as well, I'll tweak 'em after some sleep, thankw for the tips - MarkRiedesel

Comments: Sorry, I'm not big on this, it's just a different color of the Firefox icon, not sure Mozilla would like this anyway. ;)

Here my take on the icons. As icons need to be good not only at full size but also at 48x48 et 17x17 (the size of the small icon in top of program window), I've made a PNG for each of the three sizes.

Here another version with darker contours for the weasel.

A dark grey contour, looks better than black one IMHO. Edit: 17x17 shown twice, at left non retouched, at right passed by Gimp to get better definition.

I really like this; my favourite seems to change often... Then again, I don't know what new ones will be like! -- TSmithe

I really like this, and i like how you made it so that the small 17x17 icon stands out a lot more now. Good job, i think this is my favorite now (3rd time ive changed... haha) -- Polygon

Testing left-headed weasel...

I prefer the other way round. I wonder (psychologically) why that is, and why most icons have so far been that way around. -- TSmithe

I think it has something to do with the direction we read and how that relates to viewing pictures in general, imagine if the Earth were a ball and sitting on a flat surface and started to roll, which way would it roll? I hypothesize that most of us native English readers (left to right) will assume that the ball will roll to the right, thus having the Weasel holding the ball on the right side keeps it in place and eliminates any potential movement in the icon and makes it aesthetically more appealing; I personally couldn't stand an icon that looks like it's about to move :> -- Cookiebearo

That is a very apt explanation, even on an arguable topic! -- T Smithe

Problem with this is that the icon is too rectangular, for a lot of stuff the icon has to be a square or else it will get squished and look really bad -- Polygon
