gnome-paint icon has poor resolution in Dash & Launcher

[nick rundy]

The icon representing the application "gnome-paint" has extremely poor resolution when appearing in the Launcher and Dash. It is blurry and difficult to discern what picture/icon it is representing.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Perhaps we need a larger icon.

Yes. I'm no good at gimp/inkscape. Where does one go to get icons?

This is just a homemade icon waiting a substitute.
We need a new and beautiful icon for gnome-paint.
Definitely we need help in this task.

Hi everyone,

What about this one? This is the icon designed by one of my friend, Riku Lu. If you think it's okay, or need some improvement, please answer here.

I promised to add an acknowledgement to him if it's accepted by the project.

[Rogério Ferro (rogerioferro)]

It's ok for me.

Then let's use it in next release, ;-)
