no problem - its just a sketch.
My pen and the hand are pretty much redundant. In this sense your
icon is much better. It focuses on the distinguishing aspects. Iıve
also tried to eliminate the bright colors to make the icons less
dominant.
Iıd like to stick with the shape. Because this conveys "application".
A lot of constraints need to be evaluated if you design icons. I will
give it another try.
stay tuned :>
