I have changed the color for the 64px version. I think we can keep the blue background color as this is indeed the offical background color.

The 16 and 22 px versions aren't supposed to have backgrounds and the root symbols are pretty faint.

Uh, I will make them somehow less faint, though I am not sure how to keep their original character in this case.

I've remade these for you:

mimetypes.tar.gz515 BDownload

Thanks, but the root you created does not resemble the original one any longer. However, I will rework them as well.

The 32px version isn't lined up with the grid and the emblem in the middle is faint. Generally, one should avoid placing objects on half pixels.

I will see what I can do about it.

Rethinking it, I think it's wrong. The white background belongs to the logo and should not be removed as the white circle and the root symbol belong together, even
if it is against the Breeze guide line. ;)

My thoughts on your submission:

For the 16px and 22px designs, I would with the designs @ndavis proposed here:

Yes, the symbol there has the same thickness throughout the root sign, which differs from the original branding, but this makes the icon much more discernable and it's not like you could make out that difference at that size anyway.
As @noahdvs mentioned above, the white background should be removed and the entire symbol should be made up of one filled path with no outline (!). This is important to keep the icon looking as intended with the Qt SVG renderer.

As for the 32px and 64px designs, I would much prefer using only two colors by placing white variants of the smaller icons on top of a blue document background.
Example for the 32px icon:

I think this fits much better with other Breeze mimetype icons.

He mentioned that the white background should be removed. He did not mention, that it should be made up of one filled path with no outline. ;-)

If we go with your suggestion, I think the outer ring should be dropped completely as it distracts more from the root / original branding than it benefits IMHO, like that:

It looks "Breezie" to me. :)

Alright, try it without the ring. I thought the ring was necessary for it to match the original logo. Removing the ring allows the "root" symbol in the middle to be larger, which makes it less faint.

If the 16px and 22px versions include the ring, then it needs to be in the larger versions as well.

Looks like you've got everything
