So many years mIRC's icon has been the same
Do you like photoshop? IconXP? Are you an artist? Prove it!

The mIRC icon did used to be different - you can see it by opening the About dialog in the latest version of mIRC and clicking on the mIRC logo - it will flick to the old one. People are always welcome to submit their ideas to Khaled...personally I see nothing wrong with the icon as it is now and think it looks good, goes well with the program and is generally...perfect in every way  - It might be worth giving thanks at this point to Richard "Budman" Jones who created/contributed the current mIRC logo - he and others appear in the Acknowledgements sections of the help file.

i acctually thought of the same icon but with more modern. It has only four colours, whereas millions are available!

I once pondered on why the old logo had a powerpoint in it.

personally I like the current icon and like it MUCH better than the older one, but if mirc had a new icon or two in it, it wouldnt bother me at all as long as I could use the (now) current one if I chose to still  It's funny cause I think (shows when I grew up if ever lol) of the "C" in the icon as Pacman lol - wokka wokka wokka
Those who fail history are doomed to repeat it

I once pondered on why the old logo had a powerpoint in it. I personally think it's to illustrate the connection aspect of mIRC to servers. Either that or a metaphore for the power of mIRC as a program.

For some strange small group of Firefox users, possibly users of v0.9.2, it doesn't seem you can link directly to downloads using a link like that, the item Marantz means is here. Regards,

http://www.mozilla.org/download.htmlIt's there. Make sure you're not caching an old version of the page, too.

New 4 critical bugs today in Explorer  I'm with Mozilla sice 1.4 and with Thunderbird&Firebird&Firefox.. The flashblock just ideal for flash banners Just love that browser.. Hope in future at least in Europe the IE will be removed from default Windows.. Eehh.. About mIRC icon.. I like it too.. But the current logo from that forum must be updated..
