Rock and roll - I would definitely get this sorted asap, unless anyone gives any major negative arguments.

Here's a second proposal with an interlocking cog. I'm looking for a way to use hubs but we don't have a lot of space. >> > >> > <WPD-API-icon-draft2.png> >> > >> > Seb >> > >> > >> > Le 4 janv. 2013 à 01:43, Scott Rowe <scottrowe@google.com> a écrit : >> > >> >> Hi Seb, >> >> >> >> I think this icon is headed the right direction. Maybe all it needs is another interlocking cog, or maybe two - all of different sizes. The teeth could be smaller. Also, the cogs could have hubs. >> >> >> >> I do think this is better than the old puzzle piece icon so heavily favored everywhere, and that was the only other symbol I could think of for an API. >> >> >> >> Thanks for doing this!!! >> >> >> >> +Scott >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> On Thu, Jan 3, 2013 at 3:07 AM, Sébastien Desbenoit <Seb@desbenoit.net> wrote: >> >> Hi Scott, hi All, >> >> >> >> I wish for you and your close ones a very happy new year! >> >> >> >> Here's a first draft for an API icon.
