I would like to use a larger Firefox icon in the about window, similar to the design of Chrome's about window, however we would need to change the background color of the lower half of the window and the position of the line that is currently above the buttons. Details are in the attached mockup, this change would be for all platforms. I'll also prepare alternate versions of the about window image in case we aren't able to get the theme change done.

The mockup is misleading... this is the current image for the about window: http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/other-licenses/branding/firefox/content/about.png

Yeah, I know. So this image shows how we could crop the bottom of the icon instead of the top and right, and center everything. I can still create an image identical to the current branded one, but I think the centered approach might look a bit nicer.

here is what an updated version of the current window would look like. Overall not so bad, shadow looks nice. It isn't great that we are cropping off the tail though.

So we're holding off on the icon till Namoroka as well? I'm asking this because you set the [icon-namoroka] whiteboard flag...

I am assuming the current implementation in Firefox is definitely now sufficient. The icon is very large, along with interesting backgrounds, so marking as Resolved->Fixed.
