9 years ago Appears my Inkscape messed up the font encoding slightly on the xml in pond-icon-blob.svg, probably need to try another Inkscape distribution.
Fixed manually as suggested in : https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/499257

9 years ago Just fyi, a fresh git clone of pond is currently 5.2M so pushing 15b08fa to master adds like 23%, but git clone only takes the master branch, so it doesn't matter if 15b08fa lives in another branch.

9 years ago Just ran a git push -f to drop the 1.2 meg .ai file, but the original branch is still available from the commit links above. I'll warn you that the commit links above still refer to the old branch, not this one.

9 years ago I've trimmed the SVGs by removing the metadata and embedded thumbnail, and also removing an image layer that appears to be blank. Could you confirm that these files (~60KB each) are ok and that I've not messed up the appearance somehow in the trimming?

If that's ok, I'll probably land a single commit to include them rather than have all that fluff in the git history. Thanks!

9 years ago I haven't had a chance to test the icons as actual icons yet : I've never bothered to build an OS X .app bundle or set up a Linux VM with go for Pond, and my girlfriend didn't bring her linux machine here to Thailand. I'll eventually test the icon on Linux of course, but do whatever you think is best.
It'd be nice to cite my friend @skreetskrat in the commit message for the squarish icon of course.

9 years ago @agl : I'll just close up this pull and make a new pull with your version of the icons if you prefer : https://github.com/agl/pond/pull/159
There is certainly nothing wrong with your versions as far as I can see.
These are icons created by @skreetskrat based upon a suggestions by @ioerror to include bamboo because "bamboo telegraph" in Chinese means "hearsay" or "back alley news".
I renamed the original icons in a7ed942 by @skreetskrat to -square. when I made her blue background into an imho more pond-like amorphous blob.
As I understand it, these .svg icons should work as is on Ubuntu, but if not, or if you're looking into another platform, then I listed some conversion tools in https://github.com/burdges/pond/commit/18cdb4e86666ec7c22eba2c5068ed48dc2ec4b4f.
As an aside, the original Adobe Illustrator .ai file added by @skreetskrat in 15b08fa7 is 1.2M, while the .svg files are only 130k each, so maybe @agl should drop 15b08fa7 before pulling into master.
