Do I even need to say what I think of the new icon? :)

I thought it was a real broken link until I realized that I wasnt using IE and looked closer.

He reminds me of the Mozilla dragon. If you have an oooold version of Netscape (like version 3), then you can type "about:mozilla" into the URL bar and he'd start popping up and breathing fire while a page loaded. They have since removed that "feature" :(

Looking for earlier images of Mozilla, I found these along the way:

But here is some info on that animation that used to show up (and the image):

You get a gold star!! That explains the original name on the icon: "quince1" I labeled it 'popup' when I loaded it to my userpics so I could remember what it was. The name 'quince' didn't mean anything.

I think I'll change it back now :)
