To be honest, it's kind of ugly.
I like the old one...

It's new, I think they did that yesterday. I personally like this one more, since the old favicon was just the V-Bulletin default, and wasn't distinguishing at all or specific to XDA.

Check the xda portal for the color reference,

What is a color reference?
And what is the xda portal?
Xda portal = http://www.xda-developers.com ?
I did a Ctrl + F for 'color' and no results.
Cryptic message is cryptic.

I meant that the colors of the favicon reference to the colors of the portal.

It is moldy looking...

Yeah.
Looks too black. And the 'xda' is barely legible.

Be careful what you wish for...

Making a good fav icon is very very difficult because it's so small. What we have now is the most legible of many versions that were presented to is. It was made by XDA user 12aon.
If anyone wants to propose an alternative, I'd be happy to take a look.

Better icon for XDA Dev site?

Hi there.
I was wondering if the icon for the XDA Dev site was a stock one? If so, maybe someone could get PixelToolbox and design a better icon. Perhaps one that included a phone, lol...
Just a thought.
PS It would make your icon on my phone look better too! (Note: Yes I am too lazy to do it by hand.)
Jadel.
Here is one I prepared earlier!

Good Idea, maybe this could be included as part of the xda-logo (if one is ever selected) discussion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395891
Thanks
Dave
well the logo will certainly be used as the icon....so get it in a bit higher resolution so that it can be a logo....(it's always easy to scale down the image,so it can be the icon too)
(if one is ever selected)
Just email me a clean file of the XDA Logo in jpg or png format and I will most likely be able to create an icon in seconds.
i think he/she is talking about the logo which will be in the browser tab by the name of the site...not the .ico file

Mobile theme for XDA forums.

Why is there no mobile theme available for this board?
No.. I dont want to use http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php or similar.
There are many vB boards that have a nice iphone-ish look that can be also used very well on WM touch phones too (I'm using Blackstone myself). And not everyone wants an app (like Android), because one is being stuck with WM or a simple theme change can do the job as well.
I have searched and found the theme. It is available here: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=171947
so, my appeal to you admins: this is a mobile board and it needs a mobile skin. thank you!

We may do a mobile theme for the forum. We have the Android XDA app if you want a more mobile-friendly view. If you're on iPhone, you can download Tapatalk and access XDA that way.

The Galaxy Series Logo Font?

Just curious if anyone knows what font samsung uses for the galaxy logo. Not the 'S', the actual word galaxy. I was staring at it on the back on my phone and want to use it as my normal font. Thanks in advance

Suitcase Fishmonger is close, but it is not an exact match. The 'L' in Fishmonger is a 90 degree angle whereas the same letter in the word GALAXY from Samsung has a rounded curve as seen below.
The top line is typed using Fishmonger in Photoshop, the bottom is an actual logo:

Looks nice, but all the Youtube vids are private.
If you want me to try it and give you an honest opinion, you'll have to give me something that doesn't lock me out of basically all the customization options.
Video is private..

Downloaded it, looks pretty nice. The preset screen shots are a little small tho when i was looking through them. Ill play with it some more tho.
How much is the full version before I even bother wasting my time.
