Icon inconsistency #47

Closed spoorun closed 5 years ago

spoorun commented 5 years ago

It would be great to improve the icons further:

1) The main icon shown (in the panel and app menu) could be a new icon for WebFlix - rather than the current Netflix icon? qtwebflix-icon1-screenshot_20181228_231801

2) The icon appearing in the app window is an X icon rather than the program icon qtwebflix-icon2-screenshot_20181228_231801

3) When switching between windows/tasks the X icon is shown, rather than the program icon qtwebflix-icon3-screenshot_20181228_231801

I reread your issue , what do you mean in your first point?

I reread your issue , what do you mean in your first point?

Hi, sorry for lack of clarity.

In the first point, I was querying whether the icon should be changed, something more neutral (to avoid copyright issues and also to as the app can access multiple providers, not just Netflix).

But we'll open it as a separate wishlist issue, for consideration.

@varlesh, my great master of icons!

Are you willing to design a unique qtwebflix icon?

@gort818 what are your thoughts?

I think it would be great if the grey background has the shape of a TV.. maybe something like this http://orig02.deviantart.net/84a9/f/2015/321/5/e/flat_retro_tv_vector_icon_by_superawesomevectors-d9h0oaf.jpg but more asymetric... oh, or like this one http://www.webertainment.de/images/screens/original/11359331052.jpg

omni6 commented 5 years ago

@varlesh btw, glad you do it!

gort818 commented 5 years ago

@varlesh Awesome thank you so much!! @omni6 I love all of them, hard to decide :(

@gort818 All versions: icons.zip

omni6 commented 5 years ago

@gort818 imho the last one is most beautiful. Do you want to provide it instead of https://github.com/gort818/qtwebflix/blob/master/data/netflix-desktop.svg ?

gort818 commented 5 years ago

@omni6 sure!

spoorun commented 5 years ago

@varlesh Awesome thank you so much!! @omni6 I love all of them, hard to decide :(

They are all great. I agree with @omni6 as number 3 is perhaps the most vibrant one, but also the one which most signifies the purpose to the user.

gort818 commented 5 years ago

Ok cool I'll add it to the repo shortly

gort818 commented 5 years ago

Ok added it to the repo. @omni6 you can change the aur package now

@varlesh how would you like me to add your name to the authors list?

gort818 commented 5 years ago

@omni6 thanks for the update! also how would you like to be added to the authors list?

varlesh commented 5 years ago
