Okay, it's not much I know, but here's my first effort..

either FOOOD's green junior icon =

or my latest mod of determinations Simple icon(the green one) =

[chaosblade 1]

I definitly see FOOOD's green iJunior as a good one. I for one dislike all the aqua\glass effects to a point. boo's mod to the Simple set are also quite awesome as a simple convaying of the µ :]

Look at my avatar...isn't it beautiful? It's all FOOOD's work... :cool:

The basic idea for FOOOD's icon has been done since day 1. I say that ludde should wait for more original ideas before going ahead with that one.

I agree with you, I like a lot FOOOD's iJunior set and I don't really like the aqua theme.

You are not funny..

I go for boo's/determinations icons. (16x16) They are clear and clean, which fits µTorrent extraordinarily well

Check this hread for more info.

Errr...OK, so I modified his icons a bit... it's still his icons. I can provide more colors if people want them...

I nominate Determination's Simple icon,

but would prefer a bigger 16x16 version: or

I also nominate Blackice's icon.

How do you take off the shortcut?

u all seem to be posting icons. logo doesnt have to be an icon u know

@winMX_67 easiest way for normal users is to use Microsofts TweakUI

only other way is todo it manually in the registry, which most ppl shouldnt play with unless they know what theyre doing.

But his post suggest the µTorrent program, so it is an icons he is looking for

[ScubaSteve 0]

logo doesnt mean application icon. to me that suggests some kind of large banner type image which doesnt neccesarily mean using the icon as part of it.

you might be right but by the way he writes it, I think he suggest an icon for µTorrent program.

Fore example:

"µTorrent needs a logo" = suggest the program needs a icon

"I need a µTorrent logo" = suggest both banner and icon

[ScubaSteve 0]

i dont think he would mean icon. the amount of icons that have already been made by all of us ludde should be well and truly spoilt for choice.

if he does mean icon then my vote would go with FOOODs mAqua icon.

[boo 0]

I think he want to see which icons gets nominated the most

A logo, people. Not an icon! We're looking for something that will instantly be recognized, like azureus' blue spotted frog (), firefox's orange fox around globe, winamp's lightning strike thing, foobar 2000's scary alien-cat, etc. Come on, even mirc has something nicer than a µ in a green circle

But all the examples you're citing basically are icons Either way, I like the four-box Simple icon

[ScubaSteve 0]

i was thinking of something like this

EXACTLY.

Be CREATIVE.

I know its not my place to say, but I have to admit I cannot understand some peoples' tastes here in icons/logos. Get past the whole "Utorrent is simple, so we need the simplest, blandest representation for this software." It doesnt have to be like that. I'm working on some creative stuff right now...so ludde, please stand by.

Steve, I like where you're going. Looks like you were trying something similar to what I did a while back with the 3D "µ" w/ a globe in the center.

ok good to know, not everyone chats one the IRC channel

Anyway, I think that micro unit lett "µ" + green color is kind of a logo by it-self,

its like azureus' blue spotted frog and winamps lightning strike

EDIT: @ScubaSteve: streching/bending/turning the µ isn't so much for making it special,

I think we should use a simple µ and add something to it.

[ScubaSteve 0]

its clean, smart and simple. if you have any better suggestions of things todo with the µ then be my guest.

ill look forward to see what BSH, Determination and perhaps FOOOD come up with.
