I agree. We just need someone with some artistic ability to fix it. :)

Unfortunately, I have no talent with this kind of thing. I'll ask around, unless you know of someone.

Skyler,

I think it looks really good! Last time we changed icons, I just went with it. This time, should we vote on it? Or should I just include it?

Fitoschido,

Does the design submitted by Skyler meet the criteria? I'm planning to release 4.38 soon which could include it as the new default icon.

Hi Dave,

I'm supposing the "criteria" is fixing the issue described in this bug: "the icon is unpleasantly pixelled". Well, the proposed icon by Skyler definitely fixes this bug. I find it pretty gray, but it could perform well viewed in an application selector and dock, say Unity, GNOME Shell, Avant, etc. I think it looks good, while it's less colorful.
