Here is what it is about to look like.

We're making the feed icon be blue instead of orange?  I thought it was really cool that Firefox used the same icon as IE.

[Alex Faaborg [:faaborg] (Firefox UX)]

It depends on the definition of same icon.  While I'm a strong proponent of consistency, I don't think the color change alters the meaning of the icon.  Also, the color orange is either non existent or very hard to find in OS X.

[Jesse Ruderman]

Fair enough.  And I noticed that our guidelines for using the feed icon no longer require it to be orange.

Attachment: What it looks like on OSX 10.5 (Leopard)

The blue RSS and Bookmark icons introduced in FF3B4 look out of place in the context of the Panther theme.

Er, Leopard theme.

All these cats get confusing after a while.
