Yeah but I’m so sorry, why orange or even green again? It feels whimsy.
Shouldn’t the icon maintain some continuity ? i.e. matte gray and darker gray

EDIT: May as well make the icon a preference as well.

I’m not sure if i like the new Icon, here is why:

First: Why is the Icon a Button? I think the Icon should somehow describe the program, actually it does just add some confusion.

Second I would look for something more time-less. This Icon looks nice, because it leverages some design-trends from the last years. They are even today a bit cheesy already. (We call this hipster?) The old Icon wasn’t visually that great, but surely more time-less - thus a better icon than the new one. IMHO :smile:

I actually quite like this icon, although the white bit looks a bit out of place? I don’t know. Either way it’s much better than the original IMHO.

Regarding the icon: click :smile:

The new icon is… aa… OK I guess.
I much prefer the other one.
The new one is not sublime, but rather ostentatious.

Would it be possible in the next build to have both so we can choose?

Hmm… I figured out what feels “off” about the new icon:

The “S” reminds me a little bit of Comic Sans.

Sublime Edit is way to awesome to draw this comparison.

Oh were you now…?! :wink:

You can take my png & adjust the hue/saturation & brightness yourself… I think a grey/white ‘S’ would be best anyway…

I am experiencing Word Wrap issues with the latest build. With each file you have to set Word Wrap and after doing for 5-6 files, it doesn’t work anymore, I see it checked/unchecked but it doesn’t do anything. Is this a bug?

Them’s fighting words pardnah!! Green is The One True color

haha

If you do a grey/white one, do please post it, as I’d probably swap to it. I don’t care enough to photoshop it myself though.

Yep, the orange seems to be lost in my dock. Full black or white might help.

Same here! You’ll never please everyone, but this is nice. More importantly, so far it works great and it’s an awesome app.

Hi,
I’m having troubles to properly use a custom icon on ubuntu 11.10 (the new icon looked too blurry).

I’m using this icon made by Dan Perrera: http://dribbble.com/shots/311515-A-Sublime-Text-2-Icon-that-is-less-horrible
FYI I’m also using the ‘Hope’ GTK+ theme.

sudo cp /path/to/your/custom/icon.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/sublime-text-2.png && cd /usr/share/icons && sudo gtk-update-icon-cache hicolor

The command above by @sheldno doesn’t worked for me.

The only thing that worked for me is by replacing this files :

~/.config/sublime-text-2/Packages/Default/Icon.png ~/.config/sublime-text-2/Packages/Default/Icon-dock.png
I have also replaced all icons that appeared with the latest build #2178 in

sublime/Icons/16x16/sublime_text.png
sublime/Icons/48x48/sublime_text.png
sublime/Icons/128x128/sublime_text.png
sublime/Icons/256x256/sublime_text.png

with the appropriate icons resolutions.

As you can see in the screenshot, the icons looks well in the dock, but appeared blurry when i switch programs using alt+tab.

Any ideas ?
