Hello,
i almost done with generating an app bundle for Cog VM , and i found that it is using a Croquet Icon. Which doesn't seems right to me. I remember there was a guy , who presented a nice cog icon and other graphics.. anyone knows where i can find them?
Ok, i found one
http://daniel.lanovaz.org/Site/Blog/Blog.html
but there is no icons of any sort , just an animation :(

well, you can use this:
http://www.iconfinder.com/icondetails/49631/128/cog_wheel_gear_preferences_s...
or this:
http://www.iconfinder.com/icondetails/1974/128/gear_cog_icon
or this:
http://www.iconfinder.com/icondetails/43233/128/1_cog_gear_monotone_settings...
or well... search cog on icon finder and pick whichever likes you more :)

Hi Igor. For Pharo, you can check in the "media" folder of: https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/?group_id=1299
For Squeak, you can just take a normal squeak VM, take the app, right button, show package content, and then navigate to /Contents/Resources
There you will see all the .icns files
Cheers

Yes. Pharo seems having nice icons
I like the 'pharo-icon.icns' which can be found in:
https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/22309/pharo.zip
But that is for Pharo.
I think that Cog VM deserves to have own default icon. And only if it packaged with some other stuff (like pharo-one-click) it then could be changed to something else like pharo icon.
The only logo i found is on Eliot's blog page http://www.mirandabanda.org/images/LooneyCogSketchSolidSmall.gif
But its dimensions is 125px × 145px
It would be good have it in high res, like 512 × 512 (one of the Mac's standard icon size)

Nice logo. Though with a quarter turn, it looks like it will fall apart. Maybe the C-cog can be made whole with a neutral shade or an outline.

that would be my preference. The Croquet icon came from the desire to brand Teleplace's Cog VM as a Croquet VM because we're using Croquet. But if we're going to use a different icon I would very much like it to be derived from the looney gears CoG in a wheel idea. It's distinctive and Cog is a good name for a VM (for lots of reasons).

So, do you have the original vector file(s) of it?
One of the reasons to have distinct icon is when you running multiple images/vms, you can make a difference.
I think that with auto-build , we can even do a little trick, like add a version subtitle to icon. So, each distinct version build VM will have own original icon.
You might try increasing the size of the image by around 8x, applying a healthy amount of gaussian blur, and then cutting the size of the image in half. I've had some success blowing up images this way without them looking low rez. Just a thought.

noo.. that would be even uglier than sketch. temporarily i put a cog [1] from free icons site, but i wait for Daniel Lovaz, who's having an original vector version (i hope), to reply here or privately about fate of the Cog logo he made.

It probably better to vectorize the existing bitmap image and resize the vectorized version.
