Feel free to use the one you like best.

Feel free to > use the one you like best. The icon looks very similar to the one in GitWeb. The simplified is, without, making a bitwise compare, is seems identical to the Git icon. Is that appropriate? What do the author of that icon, and other Git developers, think? The plugin. after all, does steal ideas and repository format from Git, but is in fact a completely separate implementation. I'll leave this one in my patch tree for now. The Egit icon contest is stil open to all. -- robin ``` ## Robin Rosenberg, 2007-09-19 20:57 Subject: Re: [EGIT PATCH] Change to simplified icon.

But I think this is moot because the icon you just made seems to be a better fit :) Cheers, Ben > The plugin. after all, does steal ideas and repository format from Git, > but is in fact a completely separate implementation. > > I'll leave this one in my patch tree for now.

I actually like it. Maybe I'll take a stab at creating a git-gui icon, because like you I also cannot draw. A feather and some pluses and minuses can't be that hard, can it? :) Actually I just need to find a two year old. Any two year old with crayons can draw many times better than I ever could. However I think the difficult part is to get the two year old to draw the subject matter... -- Shawn. ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2007-09-24 10:26 Subject: Re: [EGIT PATCH] Change to simplified icon.

A feather > and some pluses and minuses can't be that hard, can it? :) You might want to look at http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitRelatedLogos (I especially like Henrik Nyh's, we use it in git-gui). Might be a good starting point. Ciao, Dscho ``` ## Shawn O. Pearce, 2007-09-25 01:16 Subject: Re: [EGIT PATCH] Change to simplified icon.

Come on, show the GPL love... :-) -- Shawn. ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2007-09-25 09:53 Subject: Re: [EGIT PATCH] Change to simplified icon.
