Fsnotes: [REQUEST] - Old Icon

[hellonoko]

The original icon prettier than the new MacOS one I think. :)

Can I confirm that you mean the original icon shown here: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/fsnotes

It's not the original icon but perhaps @hellonoko was referring to the icon from #197?

[hellonoko]

Ah yes sorry, I mean the version 2 icon Blue with the white stripes and tabs.

I prefer the mac "thunder" icon though I can see why some people might prefer the previous icon.

The thunder icon does feel a bit heavy on the eye - probably because the note color goes from yellowish at the top to pinkish at the bottom.

The alternative icon with yellow thunder which you can select from the settings feels a lot "easier" on the eye but then again that one won't stand out as much because yellow thunder is pretty generic.

Also, there might be too heavy of a "shadow" on the icon compared to for instance Apple's own icons and this perhaps makes the thunder icon feel less sharp/polished.

@sven-gh all good points, the thunder icon needed a bit more work but we had to launch. we'll look at it going forward, I think it's safe to say this will not be the last icon for FSNotes, there have been three so far!
