 these go into the Python 2.5 release if at all possible.

 Whilst admitting that my preference is purely old fogeyism, I prefer the 
 older icons. However, there is one aspect which seems to be forgotten. 
 These logos/icons are much more abstract and so harder to describe 
 verbally. It's pretty easy to describe the existing Python icons: can 
 you see a green snake on your desktop?. How does one describe these new 
 icons?

Can you see an icon with a blue and yellow plus on your desktop? ;)

Superb! How about getting them in the 2.5 release?

Part of the reason why I am asking is that I am not sure what I have to
do to get Win XP to use these instead of the one coming with 2.4.2.

Cheers,

EuGeNe

You could try using a proxy (one of the anonymous proxies would do the job).

It's easier than that in this case. Just unpack the icons in yout
Python directory over the top of the existing ones. The change should
get picked up the next time you log on.

Might it be possible you have malware installed? Since I do a bunch of
anti-spyware work, there are a few different bits of malware that try
to block doxdesk.com, usually using a Hosts file hijack.

Try it with the IP address 64.251.25.168 instead - if that works you
should probably investigate your Hosts file and/or look at spyware
removers.

Yes. I'll look at converting when I've used them a bit and am happy
with them. I think some of the higher-level Xara effects may not
convert easily to SVG but I'm sure there'll be workarounds of some
sort.

I've taken the opportunity to knock up some icons using it, finally
banishing the poor old standard-VGA-palette snake from my desktop. If
you like, you can grab them from:

  http://www.doxdesk.com/img/software/py/icons.zip

in .ICO format for Windows - containing all resolutions/depths up to
and including Windows Vista's crazy new enormo-icons. Also contains the
vector graphics source file in Xara format. You can also see a preview

Yeah, might do that... I'm thinking I might flip the pycon icon so that
the Windows shortcut badge doesn't obscure the Python logo, too. Maybe.

I'll let them stew on my desktop for a bit first though...

I like that whilst being a solid and easily-recognisable, it isn't
clever-clever.

I had personally been idly doodling some kind of swooshy thing before,
with a snake's head forming a P and its forked tongue a Y coming out of
it, but in retrospect it was just trying too hard. The plus-tadpoles'
simplicity appeals to me.

OK, but Python IS clever, so its logo ought to be too.

Since you are acknowledging they are tadpoles, I guess you've heard my
