Butt-ugly icon

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 6-12 months

Recommend Product: YES

I've already reviewed the application itself, and I could not give CocoathumbX enough stars - it is the penultimate freeware.

But the icon just went from average to awful in one revision. I do not want some dude's thumb in my dock, no matter how buffed his thumbnail is. Keep the body parts elsewhere, please. That goes for hands, eyes, breasts, mouths, and all other body parts that are showing up in ridiculous app icons these days.

Furthermore, showing a guy's thumb in CocoaThumbX's icon is a lame pun. It's old by the second launch. If you're going to do a pun on Finder "thumbnails," then show a guy's thumb with a nail hammered through it, blood everywhere. Hah! Get it? "Thumb" "Nail" huh huh huh!

Butt-ugly icon - Fartleberry

Glad to see the thumb go, it was as bad as the toe fungus commercials. Great app, use it every day. Now handles RAW so I can throw out another program I kept specifically for Raws. Used to be a fatal lockup on some RTFs. Will check the new version. 5 star app.
