GrooveShark Lite SSB Icon

June 19th, 2008

This won’t mean much for most of you, but I’ve been using GrooveShark Lite a lot recently, and so I made an SSB (Site-Specific Browser) for it using Fluid. Fluid just grabs the web site’s favicon as the program icon, and it’s tiny, so it looks hideous. So, I decided to waste way too much of my time and create an icon. I uploaded two; one with the globe and one without. They’re hosted on Flickr here: GrooveShark Lite SSB Icon rev3 (without globe) and GrooveShark Lite SSB Icon rev4 (with globe).

By the way–this may not work with browsers other than Firefox, as other browsers have trouble viewing transparent PNGs. Who knows.

EDIT: I uploaded a brighter version of the globe that has a better brightness balance compared to other OSX icons. You can find it here: GrooveShark Lite SSB Icon rev4b (with globe, BRIGHTENED)

    [...] why I decided to do my own icon. I’m not the first one to get the idea, so you can check other icons out and see which one you like best [...]

    Would you consider removing the l, since grooveshark no longer uses the lite in its name?
