ED Logo/Shortcut image since update 16. Which do you prefer? New or old?

Hi all,
I really liked the old Elite logo/shortcut image that we used to have.
I find the new one quite frankly rather naff.

I would much prefer the old image on my desktop to the new one.

What do the rest of you think? Would you prefer the old one back?
If you could post a quick like or reply just to give Frontier some feedback on this suggestion it would be appreciated?
I am sure I am not the only one that preferred it?
Thank you.

Doesn't bother me, it is similar enough to the old one to not be confusing - it is just something to double-click to fire off the launcher.

But, if you wan't the old one back - just select "change icon" from the shortcut properties, browse to the ED install folder and select the uninstall file - which has the 'old' icon, then select the icon from the target window. Work complete!

Speaking of relatively inconsequential matters, I believe the new icon was introduced with the new launcher, not U16.
Back to topic: I like the new icon.
For some reason I have both old and new on my desktop.

I remember the old black one but I've been using a custom one for years. What does the new one look like anyways?

the new icon helps me differentiate between the game and the launcher, especially when i dual log and i have in the taskbar 3 Elite icons - 2 games and one launcher

yea, i had 3 shortcuts on my desktop (Fdev, Epic, Steam) and one of the launchers still used the old icon, i had to change it manually to bring harmony to my desktop :D
however, i dont remember which one was it.
