The new "chicken" logo is not good for XnView! It looks too "chicken"....

The new logo is an improvement over the old logo, that's for sure.

XnView MP logo icon 512x512 (Mac OSX)

Sorry, but I think the newer designs are shocking. I would like to be able to ignore whatever work ends up on desktop. Attempts at the opposite goal I don't agree with at all.

looks great, very modern and professional

Sorry to bump an old topic,

But I just want to further express my delight at this lovely new XnView icon

even at 16x16 compared to old icon, it stands out sharply and modern

He,

even at 16x16 compared to old icon, it stands out sharply

In this format it is true but bigger

Hi,

As is the reason for this post, there is a slight size difference as well as lack of XnConvert's bottom drop-shadow in XnView MP's icon:


========================================================================================

So XnView MP icon needs a same size fix so to be the same as XnConvert icon!

...So I did a bit of image editing and simply re-used the existing XnConvert icon as the base and cut out the eye neatly:

-It's now exact same dimensions and drop-shadow as XnConvert icon at 256x256.
-As you can see I added noise effect to the White 'eye' background Sclera - also the dots in the eye Sclera is added 'noise' effect for fun.

I think a background 'eye' Sclera would be better and it even shows up nice on 'black' and other darker backgrounds.


Another comparison:
existing (without background Sclera+drop shadow)


with background Sclera+drop shadow:


Here is a 16x16 comparison (click on image to enlarge):



here is the transparent 256x256 rgb white-noise-background 'Sclera': Comparison of the fixed (apng preview):


Thibaud has the original vectors to make any such proposed changes!

For me, that sclera falls squarely into the "uncanny valley".

Here are more previews of my custom updated design (I really like it):
