SuSE provides a non-anti-aliased icon for Firefox that looks bad compared to other KDE icons. I've seen the same problem on Debian/Gnome. Copying the OS X icon (as PNG) over remedies the problem. It would be nice if the branding materials for Linux included the same icon that is used on OS X, so that it would be easy for distros to roll out packages whose icons don't look out of place in KDE and Gnome.

Attaching a PNG version of the OS X icon.

Steven, Bart, this would be a good thing, the xpm gets real ugly-like on a largish GNOME toolbar, which I happen to use...

By all means. The attached PNG is exactly what we need. I've wanted this for a while, but haven't known how to get it in. The Fedora package has been putting the icon in themselves (with permission) - but it would be nice to fix this upstream for them. We probably just want to use the 128px version posted (same as OS X), but for those interested, jimmac did a version with the stock Gnome visual style: http://primates.ximian.com/~jimmac/blog/Artwork/Firefox.html

Should I file a separate bug about Thunderbird?

Yes, please file a bug for Thunderbird.

Filed bug 262265 about Thunderbird.

Here's the more recent version of the icon (128px by 128px, full-color transparent PNG) that shipped in the 1.0 version on Windows and Mac OS X.

Can I at least understand why is can't go into 1.1? I'll help anyway I can to get this in there.

Joseph: "blocking-aviary1.1 -" doesn't necessarily mean it won't or can't be in 1.1. Rather, it just means that 1.1 won't be blocked if it's not done (right?).

Exactly. Basically this needs some build-fu loving to be packaged into the release GTK builds, so if there's a patch, great, but if people really want they can get the icon here.

Steven, can we get an equivalent for non-officially branded builds too?

Here's the non-branded version Mike. Same type of image: 128 by 128 pixels, full color, transparent PNG.

This patch assumes that the branded Firefox PNG icon (attachment 176484 [details]) is at: other-licenses/branding/firefox/mozicon128.png and the non-branded one (attachment 178790 [details]) at: browser/app/mozicon128.png So the image files must be also cvs added.

mconnor: Does this also need approval-1.1a2 or can this be checked in?

Comment on attachment 186594 [details] [diff] [review] Patch (adds the files to respective Makefile.in's) Yes, it needs approval, everything does.

Can someone check in the patch and cvs add the images? I only have l10n cvs access...
