Indeed, this is a regression from bug 352200.

Um they are recognizable because I can't make anything out? and does it really matter if they are?

Comment 3

Sorry forgot to update..yeah I can make out north and south America but I dont feel that it really matters if you can make out which continents are in the icon.

You don't happen to be a US citizen, do you? The Firefox icon wasn't changed without reason (it used to look quite Earth like as well): it might quite well alienate parts of our user base. Whether that's reasonable or not, the change should be quite cheap in this place - and rather be safe than sorry.

Attachment: Content Icon cut off on right end

Is it only me or am I seeing the new checked-in icon a little cut off on its right most end? Screenshot attached.

This is really starting to get funny, if you have a sick sense of humor.

Marking fixed since the original issue is done. Filed new bug 353141 to track edge cutoff issue.

reopen?

This certainly isn't fixed1.8.1, given comment 11.

Comment 13

[Mike Beltzner [:beltzner, not reading bugmail]]

re-adding fixed1.8.1; the globe in the file in comment 11 isn't actually the one used for the Content pane ... in fact, it's not used at all.

A separate bug should be filed to fix it, but it shouldn't block Firefox 2 release.

Filed bug 354642 to track the wrong-globe-in-EM-button-file issue ...
