Icon Is Not Ideal #20

Closed landry314 closed 1 year ago

landry314 commented 3 years ago

The icon for this app, how can I put this... it looks like a scrotum. I'm sorry, I just don't like looking at it. I also don't like how thin it is on the top, it feels too delicate for a leaf. Does anyone agree with me?

Thanks for you honest opinion ;) I haven't thought about the icon, or mostly only that I would like to submit a monochrome version to the frost theme, but am open to suggestions.

I saw your try in providing an icon for frost and wanted to help fixing so I'll attach it here.

Since I don't have your app installed i don't know how it looks, but if anyone feels unpleased looking at your icon, consider changing it.

maybe a ginkgo leaf fits? But I also don't know what and why it is now. bodhitimer.svg.zip

It's a Bodhi leaf. It's a real leaf from a Bodhi tree, the tree under which the Buddha became enlightened.

This makes sense. I have never seen one before and noone mentioned it. Thanks for the explanation.

There could be a better image of a bodhi leaf somewhere to consider...
