I created this icon for the open source instant messaging app Pidgin. I hated how its default icon looked in my dock, and I couldn't find another that I liked, so I whipped one up on my own - and I rather like it. :D (The screen crop in the bottom left shows how the icon looks on my desktop with AWN.)

I tried to keep this within Tango's style guidelines, and for my first attempt, I think I did fairly well in that respect. It's obviously modeled off of AOL Instant Messenger's old "running man" logo - traced in Inkscape - but tweaked a bit, with a purple color palette and another visible arm.

The zip archive includes the SVG file (for your resizing pleasure), and a 128x128 pixel PNG. Let me know if you like it! :)

When I open my saved PDF file in photoshop after I've made a vector in inkscape, my lines look like crap [link] How do I prevent this from happening? (I'm mostly referring to the mouth btw)

Its very good :) How do you resize in inkscape without making the lines look funny btw? When I do it, my lines look funky
