Mozilla and Netscape 7 have window icons for things like bookmarks, etc. We need them for Firebird for the following windows: Browser Bookmarks Downloads "Security UI" (generic icon for all Security windows) Info windows (something with an "i" in it probably) JavaScript console Help DOM Inspector Venkman some of these (DOMI, Venkman) can simply be pillaged from seamonkey. The others will have to be done specifically for Firebird.
I really agree that Icons are needed, but there is a partial solution at http://www.texturizer.net/firebird/tips.html#app_icon however you will need to get your own icons, (you could use Mozilla's icons) like I said, this is a partial solution, not even a true or complete workaround. In Windows 98 and Windows me the only icon is the windows logo (in place of nothing, becaus no icon was actually put in)

I think this should be given more priority - it is really kind of embarassing when you show someone the shining browser and he immediatelly notices "Heh, but it doesn't even have own icon!" Firebird already puts its own small icon to the slit near Start, I think it has the same dimensions...? And for most of the others, is there any problem with at least just ripping these from Seamonkey for now?

Is there any relation with Bug 226602 ?
(In reply to comment #3) > Is there any relation with Bug 226602 ? I do not think so, but maybe there could be: maybe when Firefox views those files (not through an HTML file, but the file directly) they should use what ever icon someone made up for it (jpeg, png, mng, etc.) not that I have a clue how anyone would ever do that....

This is a minor polish bug. It certainly shouldn't block Firefox 0.9 which is a feature-driven release. If it makes it in, great. If not, we shouldn't hold off 0.9 for this.

This DOES need to be sorted, preferably pre-0.9, but if not DEFINATLY befor 1.0. How a product looks is very imprortant... thunderbirds just got its own identity compleatly sorted and Its only on 0.6

Kevin, this isn't a big priority for 1.0. I'm not even convinced we need separate window icons at all.

Blake, if this isn't necessary for 1.0, can we remove the blocking-aviary 1.0 +?

Here's a screenshot of task-bar problem in Windows 98. Any chance of a fix? It really does not look very professional :-S

(In reply to comment #11) > Created an attachment (id=163610) > Screenshot of Win98 problem I just reinstalled FF 1.0 two times on my mom's Win98SE machine because of this bug. It is not merely cosmetic - many experienced Windows users think of that default icon as an indication that the application (or installer) has somehow been corrupted. I know nothing about Windows programming so don't know how it works fine on WinXP. It is kinda shameful that the product deemed "1.0" doesn't have a working icon on a still fairly major platform.

I just installed Firefox on my parents computer on Win98 (first edition). The window icon instead of the firefox logo made me somewhat insecure, if the installation really worked. It looks terrible anyway. I hope this is easy to fix. Please do it. It is a real show stopper, because it looks somehow broken.

requesting blocking as it's a silly bug, it's blatant to all win98 users, and can probably be fixed relatively easily.

This is separate from the win98/gtk1 issues. Those are covered by bug 171349. This is about separate icons for different windows, which isn't a blocker.
