[PD] Icon Update?

[Max]

Dan, that looks very similar to what I posted on Pd-dev a few weeks back.
I agree with your mention of lacking discussion, because there was no 
reply to my mails either.

The fabulous SVG export plugin [1] from IOhannes not only saves you one 
step of conversion, it also had better results for me that actually 
looked like the Pd gui, not some abstract version of it like when using 
the PostScript output.

Your icon version looks a bit slimmer (Font and lines of the box) then 
what I got. I'm not sure why this is, it might be either because you are 
on Mac OS, or because you used the PostScript export. Your version also 
has not the typical shadow that Mac OS icons seem to have.
