Description
Holy shit... I am so sick of the Safari icon after trying to vector this. I should've just cheated and copied it from the web or something. But no, I sat there and recreated the whole thing from scratch(afterthought edit: EXCEPT the maps. There is freely available source art for that insanity online. I built these not-quite recognisable continents from those, which was slightly less painful than picking up an atlas, haha). Derp. *[Hatred/grudging respect for whoever designed it]*This is why it doesn't look quite the same as the original (I don't think the landmass in the compass face is very recognisable... call it a stab in the dark at Equestria's geography, heh), and it also lacks the little loop/chain ring at the top of the 'compass'. There's another reason for that, though; it was making the icon look too small, so I lopped it off to have room to make the rest bigger
ANYWAY - here we are! Safari. At last. I guess we could just call her Safari, but I'm open to suggestions.
Windows icon!
Mac icon!
Many thanks to for the suggestion on why Mac icons were coming out over-saturated. (if you're reading, I can't get that solution to work, haha, but I think I've found a way round it now I know what the problem was!)

You forgot the little thing at the top of the compass.

Deliberately left it out, actually! It took up too much room and made the icon too small.

Would it be possible to make another version that has that on it?
Here's a 512x512 version of the icon for reference:

Because while it makes the image look slightly smaller, it's what the real icon does, and so the ponified icon will look larger than the real iconβ¦

Oh, derp, I just noticed that her tail hangs below the icon in this version, which would take up space as well. Was that your reason for omitting the top part, then?

Oops, thought I hit 'Add Comment' when I replied to you earlier! Yep, that's it! Because of her tail, the icon works out the same size as the original in use. But if I add the lanyard ring, it looks too small. I'd have to remove/find another comfortable pose for her tail to make room for that ring in order to have the icon look right.

well it looks like Norway ate Sweden and Finland
and it appears that Cuba just got a 1+ mushroom, but its not bad for creating it from scratch. Of coarse all of my criticisms are jokingly, you have a gift to make amazing art.

Well, for Chrome, there's this awesome icon ! I'm not going to bother doing a Chrome icon, that one is already perfect.

It's really nice, I'm liking these icons, might just install all these applications just so I can use the icons you made.
