Post #1by zhar2 » 18.12.2008, 21:44

Well ive notice a while ago that the celesia icon is a bit fuzzy and low res, and ive been thinking of another possible icon suggestion well as ive wanted to help celestia but cant write code i though i might try this way, this is what i came up with :) hopeully u'll like it and offer me some suggestion.

the image is png but the icon has been done in svg.

On my Windows system, Celestia's current desktop icon is about 1/2 the width and height of your smallest icon image, celestia-icon3.png (i.e. 1/4 the area). If Celestia's current icon is larger on your computer, the process which magnifies it might be what makes it fuzzy for you.

I think the small size would limit the amount of detail that could be used.
