Jay Weisskopf from the Mailing List just showed us some of his latest work. A beautiful set of ioquake3 Icons. We might even use them! He also submitted an icon of this image which we should definitely use as the website favicon. Check them out, nice job Jay!

Hell yes. favicon for the win.
A more updated version of this icon was submitted to the mailing list. It can be found here: http://lists.ioquake.org/pipermail/ioquake3-ioquake.org/2008-June/002948.html

If you click the link I posted in the second comment, there are three attachments. One of them is titled “quake3logo.xcf”.

That should be sufficient for getting the sizes and backgrounds you want.

when will they add it to ioquake
I made this into a Mac .icns file for my own use (with 256×256 and smaller versions as I don’t ever have icons go as big as 512). To use it go to the ioquake3.app, right-click and choose “Show Package Contents”, then navigate to \Contents\Resources and replace the ioquake3.icns file there with this file http://carboxymoron.com/stuff/ioquake3.icns
