MandleBulb 3D Alternate Icon Sets

[Pangaea]

Hi there folks... been teaching myself mandlebulb3d for the past few days, and loving it to bits.. what a wonderful piece of software..  just as a little thank you I made a set of 2 icons, with 3 color variations of each. I gota say although I love the software the default icon dosent exactly scream out to be clicked.. , also im using an object desktop setup, similar to mac.

Anyhow, they are in ico. format, although i have also provided the original pngs in the rar so if anyone wants to edit them, or make icons compatible for mac or whatever, fire away

Just one note, each icon has different size and pallet variations contained within it.. all the lower color pallets the shadow under each icon wont look good (didnt think of that when making them).. .. so they look best with a true color pallet , and even better using an object desktop setup or displaying the icons at 256x256

Icons here: http://fractalscapes.net/designs/3dfrac/MandleBulb_3D_Icon_Sets.rar

Screenshots of the high true colour size variation strips within each icon.









Hope you like and/or get use out of them.

regards

PS.. rar has been thoroughly scanned for any nasties to the best of my ability

Haha, can you also make a DEcombiante Knots/Mandelbulb, or a simple MengerKochv2 alt icon set?

Thank you for the work Pangaea, though the softshadows fits more to fragmentarium, maybe 

Whats about the old quaternion minibulb, so people will recognize the program again (me included)?

But i think the icon can be changed also in the operating system if you can't stand the old one...

Hi there jessy, might you be the very creator and developer of this astounding piece of software?

I shall do a new set soon.. I realise the soft under shadow might only suit object desktop setups.

quaternion minibulb?  can you point me to where that is to bring it up in the programme.
I did consider using a generic representation of a mandle.. hence i used the instantly recognisable box and bulb... i guess the same way one might use a full mandlebrot or julia set to represent 2d frac software, but i guess you know your own software better than I and what would better represent it...  ill do a bunch more soon, and include quaternion.
By the way may I take this opportunity (if you are the creator / developer) to thank you for providing such an amazing tool and to offer any help with the software in terms of gui, general  graphical presentation, same goes with the forum, willing to help out in anyway I can, lets just say Ive got plenty of time on my hands for the foreseeable future.

Yep, for me the icon is not that important, but the good old potato bulb ist not a must.
If you and others want something better, please feel free to vote for a set, maybe add one or two if you like.

I will go with the best vote

An Icon is an Icon, doesn't matter to me what it is as long as it's point to the right thing.
