I’m deeply hurt! I made that icon myself – I sweated over it for minutes as I took 3 images and stuck them on top of one another.

So I’ve decided to take action!! SOMEONE MAKE ME A BETTER ONE!

Please! Feel free. If you make and I like it, I’ll use it, include it and cite you in the About box in the app and on the website.

I can’t offer anything else as a reward. You’ll get kudos and the knowledge that your logo will appear in the browsers of somewhere between 250,000 (the number of active users I have) and 1.4 million (the number of downloads for this thing so far) people. You’ll obviously have to be giving me some sort of unlimited license to use it for promoting Screengrab or something, since that’s really the only tenable way this thing could work.

I’ll also post all of the submissions on a page and maybe people could vote? I reserve the right to overrule you all though! Democracy in action!

So if anyone ever reads this website, and wants to do this, please make me a better logo! PLEASE!

I always liked the idea of a fist with a long web-page trailing out of it like ticker-tape, but I am (obviously) an idiot who (thankfully) can’t draw…

I always knew I wanted a logo and now I have one.
