New icon for QB64PE - Ikerkaz - 01-24-2024

Hi to all

I like the actual phoenix icon. However, it is a little blurry in my Windows taskbar, and I prefer simply icons.

I have created a new icon for QB64PE, "inspired" in the old non-PE logo, hope you like it. I also have compiled the IDE with a .ICO version of this image; for me it is easier to identify it in the taskbar.

Nice

Is it easy to recompile the IDE ?

I have no problem distinguishing QB64 current v2.1 used at another forum and QB64pe used here on my toolbar:
   

But it would be much easier to confuse the two if we went with your suggestion.

There were some similar suggestions for new icons early on the pe project. My problem with them is that they did not retain the (IMO) crucially important "64" in the icon. The fact that qb became compatible with 64-bit machines is what drove me to the original Galleon qb64. And then from there, all the other big improvements came to light.

I have designed another icon with the "64" on it, here you have:
