Safari version of the standard feed icon


About

recently (as of 2005-12-23), Matt Brett created a reproduction of the standard feed icon (now used by Firefox and soon used by IE 7) in a diverse array of formats.

seeing this standard being created, I am slightly irked by Safari's use of a simple 'RSS' icon.

Safari's default icon: white text, reading 'RSS', on a blue rounded-rectangle.

New standard feed icon, looking somewhat like radio waves. White on orange.

I don't blame Apple; the feed icon hadn't yet started to become a standard when the most recent release of Safari (Mac OS X 10.4.3) happened. nonetheless, I decided it needed to be fixed.

so I fixed it.
