New icon contest

[Former user]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 310

Hello 

I an older issue I have read that you are looking for a new Icon.

Yesterday I had a little time and tried to create one. Iam not an Icon
designer nor a specialist in creating graphics so its only a try.

Everything can be changed so if you like it contact me under 
"matthias (ÄT) brannolte DOT de"

Greetings Matthias

``` Well, after working on Qt all day, and coming home to code... The icon idea tempted me too much, so here are two of my ideas. Both of these are available as SVGs, so if anyone wants to modify/extend one, I'll post those files. ```

``` UPDATE: due to no time at all to dedicate to the project ATM, the icon contest deadline

will be prolonged for undetermined time. The idea is still to have a new icon for the

new release though. ```

``` What about the icon on your website? That one is nice and simple. ```

``` Going to take a stab at this.

Probably going to convert it to SVG once I get the time. ```

``` c4cmor, I like your idea. The icon from the home page would work just fine. ```

``` The program is incredible, but the icon really needs a replacement. Unfortunately you're not helping much.

All the icons except the last one are horrible. The last one is kinda strange, but not as bad.

I know I'm kinda harsh here, but it seems you're not putting enough effort on it.

I wish I could help making one icon too, but I know my limits. I simply couldn't make one cool enough for this app.

Have you considered asking for professional help? Maybe we could have donations to make one in IconFactory (http://iconfactory.com/) or IconBuffet (http://www.iconbuffet.com/). Yellow Icon Design (http://www.yellowicon.com/) seems to make good ones too — they made the Crystal series — and would be my choice if I had the money to pay.

PS: Maybe a remake of the actual icon would be cool too. It just seems distorted on Windows but I've seen some cool ones on the site. ```
