See https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/HighContrastAppIcons
I'm adding Adrian on CC, as the original author of Frogr's icon (and also because my artistic abilities are a little bit more than questionable)
Created attachment 241662 [details] high contrast icon for frogr this is the high contrast icon for frogr using inkscape.
Thanks sanchi for your submission. I think it needs a bit more work to match the HighContrast style of thick black and white lines. Perhaps reading http://jimmac.musichall.cz/doc/high-contrast/html/index.xhtml might help.
Created attachment 241731 [details] Frogr icon, high-contrast version Here is an icon based on the original Frogr icon, and applying the mentioned guidelines for accessible icons.
Created attachment 241732 [details] Frogr icon, high-contrast inverse version Same as the previous one, but with the white/black colors swapped so this version would better fit the inverse high contrast theme variant.
Thanks for the icons. Overall they look good to me, but I'm not an expert anyway in design guidelines, so I'd rather trust Jeremy's opinion to know when it's really a good moment to commit them to the repository.
Sanchi: Something is weird with your Inkscape grid settings, because the graphics keeps being off the grid.
Due to the lack of more comments, and considering that quite a long time has passed already :), I just took the high contrast icon provided by Adrian (the non inverse one) and pushed it to master. https://git.gnome.org/browse/frogr/commit/?id=35a657dd2c8f742678e8336f157c86f628bde76a Feel free to reopen if you do not agree with the decision or whether you feel the icon provided should be different, but for now let's at least have one. Thanks!
