Description Michael Joyner CLA 2016-07-14 10:30:28 EDT 
I can barely see the "G" icon - it is green and faint and disappears into the background.

Changing themes has no impact in visibility.

Woe unto Red/Green color blind users!

There should be a way to change it into the Gradle Elephant color and not the pale version of the Gradle leaf color.

Thank you for your feedback. We plan to overhaul our icons for Buildship 2.0 and will take this into account.

Hi guys, I am Red / Green Color Blind, and a Gradle Buildship user (We are in the end stages of switching from our old, make build to a nice Gradle Build) and I definitely second this, that G really disappears :)
Comment 3 Stefan Oehme CLA 2016-10-07 05:28:01 EDT 
We hear you, our designer has started working on a new icon set Buildship 2.0
Comment 4 Donat Csikos CLA 2016-11-11 08:39:04 EST 
The latest 2.0 snapshot contains the new icons which look much better with both the light and the dark theme. I'm closing this issue now, but feel free to reopen it if you still have concerns.
Comment 5 Donat Csikos CLA 2017-01-11 06:12:34 EST 
Buildship 2.0.0 was released today.
Comment 6 Chris Boyd CLA 2017-01-11 12:46:29 EST 
Good job guys, the new icon looks great!

Works well for my dark theme, and I am red/green color blind, it works well from that aspect too!

Thank you again.
