added new QS icons and DMG icons

[pjrobertson]

Thanks to Dan Deming-Henes for these. He's also the guy who's done the new QSApp.com redesign so we've got a lot to thank him for!

I think the new icon looks great in the dock - makes QS feel like it's been dusted over a bit to get rid of the cobwebs :)

We'll be using the .dmg icon for all future releases unless anyone has any objections.

Anybody wanting to see the difference can do so here (I actually had the old image lying around, so it was easy to make the new one :)

hmmm...seeing it side by side like that, I think it should be a little darker. On it's own, I didn't even notice ;-)

i think new icon should have gloss

[burningTyger]

no gloss please. That is so Web 2.0 :)

I like it a lot. Sharper lines and shadows, and a subtle gradient. The colour is quite a bit brighter, but at least it's obvious what it's supposed to be. Thightower thought it was supposed to be grey, it was that dark.

Does anyone else think we it should be darkened a bit?
It's true that it is lighter than the previous icon, but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. I prefer it :)

Are there little tweaks we could make? Yes. (For instance, I wonder if the white border should be removed at smaller sizes.) Is it a good icon as is? Yes.

When was design-by-committee ever a good idea? :)

I’m fine with merging it, but I’ll wait a day or so for objections.

[pjrobertson]

It's been a day or so... :)

Dan's said he's happy to work on brushing up the prefs icons as well :D

[skurfer]

So it has.
