I'm kinda picky over certain things, and it always bothered me that EE didn't have a program icon. I knew about the the logo that Assmaster made and I've been meaning to try and convert it into an icon for a while now. I talked with essel about it briefly today and he said I should go for it. So I did.

Hopefully it came out ok. I had to do a little extra work to smooth out the edges (the logo image I took off the website had lots of white around it). I did a quick test and it seemed to come out pretty good. There are 7 different sizes I accounted for; 256x256, 128x128, 64x64, 48x48, 32x32, 24x24, and 16x16. Let me know if there are any problems; I've only made icons on a few other occasions so I probably screwed something up.

Anyone is welcome to change anything on the icon :D

[EDIT]

New version up.

My computer crashed while downloading though I probably can't blame that on the icon. :[
They're a couple of shades darker than the original and the larger icons could do with a little more smoothing around the edges but overall not bad.

Wow, I certainly hope not D:

Anyways, I just noticed that it's darker than the original logo too...I'm not sure how that happened. Thankfully it should be pretty easy to fix. I don't know if I can really smooth it out anymore than it already is though, but I'll work on it some more today and see what I can do. Thanks :D

I started over. I think this attempt looks much better. I figured out a better way to remove the rough edge from the .gif logo on the EE site, so I really didn't have to do a whole lot of manual tweaking. I'm working on the .ico now :]

Mkay, here it is: http://www.filesavr.com/iconee2_1

I've updated the OP with that link as well. Let me know what you guys think.
