Always wondered why the RSS Icon in the AISS is Yellow and not the official colour of Orange?

Any chance you can update this (if you haven't already) in your next update? Also side question, will AISS be added to AmiUpdate?

The answer is quite simple: There was never a colour table for Orange! AISS was and is always based on the actual WB icon design and therefore used the same colour table as the icons. As there was no need for Orange in the icon design I never considered to expand the table for AISS.

The next incarnation of AISS will feature an expanded table of colours including Orange.
BTW I also did an image for Wordpress, Facebook and Donations ;)

As the next update will be based on the new icon design of AmigaOS4.2 it will make no sense to provide it now.

AISS is already added to AmiUpdate...

Great and welcome news!

I'm so looking forward to AmigaOS 4.2, your icons are the best thing happened to the AmigaOS GUI, and they brighten my day each time I switch on the Amiga. Thanks! [OT] Even though my systems are crashing so much lately.. It's a bit like putting a picture on the wall and having it fall when you look at it..frustrating.. ill guess i have to run memtester tonight.. [/OT]

It will be interesting to see what you come up with for donations ;) I am sure you realise the Twitter one(s) are out-of-date too. Yes, there are many search engines, social networking and web 2.0 sites compared to when you began AISS yes? I can think of many that would reequire an AISS icon equivalent...

LinkedIn, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Wikipedia, Instagram, G+, Joomla, WordPress... basically every popular 'FavIcon'.
