I use the attached image with WindowMaker, it's the splash image s= hrinked to 48x48. This approach is going in the wrong direction. It is too hard to see, and it doesn't focus on the important thing, which is "Emacs". I ask everyone to please NOT send any more proposed icons that are based on a picture of a gnu. All such pictures are too complex, and unusable. Please save your time and mine by not proposing such pictures. The most that might work is the partial gnu picture combined with an E. By the way, I see people sending both 48x48 and 16x16 icons. When is the 48x48 used, and when is the 16x16 used?
