New icons of Adiumy, the Adium duck. I wasn’t sure to expect a new icon totally or a refreshed Adiumy when Adam pre-announced the new version, but I like it.
Something I noted in retrospect: The icon wasn’t supposed to ‘solve’ having a big green duck as the icon. Having a big green duck as your icon isn’t about being ballsy. It’s not about ignoring your audience. It’s not about “just not getting it” about icons. No, damn it, having a big green duck is about personality.
And for those interested, Adium is finally in its 1.0 beta (which you should not post to version tracking sites). The big thing is that File Transfer finally has a chance of working in AIM/.Mac and ICQ, but there are many small improvements that all add up. I’ve made some myself over a long period: The Insert Link from Safari command now can source OmniWeb, NetNewsWire and Camino too (and will ask which if more than one browser is open), the volume icons to the left and right of the slider in Events peg the slider to the respective edge when clicked, and then there’s a (still slightly buggy) use of the (also beta) Shortcut Recorder control I started to implement a hot key.
