Request for opinion: Rethink the quickemu overlay

[Lukewh]

My original thoughts behind having the distro icon + the quickemu icon overlay was for use in .desktop files and for running VMs.

It's great that quickqui has implemented the icons, but it's my opinion they don't look great in their current format:

This is no fault of quickqui, it's an issue with the icons themselves. Used at such a small scale, the quickgui icon becomes noise, and on a dark background, the white circle becomes jarring.

Until there is a way to use these icons for running VMs and .desktop files, I propose we also provide the distro icons without the quickemu icon overlay.

Edit This may help with situations as described here

Yeah, I think so too. Additionally, the purpose of the quickgui overlay is to convey the information that this desktop launcher has something to do with Quickgui. Since the icons mentioned above are inside the program itself, this extra info is not necessary.

I think you're right: for quickgui menu use the overlay is too tiny and as daPhipz said somewhat unnecessary .

I have included the base icons in the build - I believe this can now be closed <3
