[F] Program Icon #3147

Expected behaviour

A clearly visible icon with a positive mood on the Windows taskbar (black in my case) that conveys an impression of the program that is opened with it.

I made one for me as replacement (assigned with program properties). It works fine for me:

qon-ico-sample

QONotes-ico.zip

I like orange as an icon color - that's a matter of taste, of course. I can also create it in a different color on request, as well as a variant for light taskbars/backgrounds (orange is a good choice for both).

Actual behaviour

On my computer, the current default icon is a black square with an almost unrecognizable cloud icon (?) in a white frame. This is neither descriptive nor particularly appealing to me.

Steps to reproduce

Start program on a Windows system with a dark taskbar.

Thank you for your suggestion.
A rebranding is a major step, and I fear, takes a lot more than putting an Icon in a file. 😅
Think all repositories of https://www.qownnotes.org/getting-started/overview.html, multiple sizes of icons in vector and pixel graphic, dark/light mode icons, all screenshots, documentation webpage, web API, web application, browser extension, CLI application, and much, much more. 😉
