I tackled the feed icon in the Location Bar, and while at it, realized that i was also missing the security lock icon that goes there when you’re on a secure page. Also discovered that i had a double set of style rules for the status bar security button. Not sure if that has been that way since the 0.8 release and it just slipped under the radar, or if it was something i was testing with afterwards. Anyway, so that is cleaned up, and added styles for the new security icon which were basically identical to the old security icon—whenever that changed.
The feed button code and styles are in place. But i need to come up with a feed icon, which is something i kept putting off around 0.9 or whenever they integrated feed/livemark support. I have an idea for it—kind of like the Bookmarks Manager variants that are shifted off to one corner, but it would then have radiating outlines in the “plus” pattern of my bookmark icons instead of the curves of the default feed icon. I’ll have to play with that in Photoshop (which is something i haven’t done in a really long time for these icons). The only issue i can forsee from here is that it won’t scale to the large-type button icon. It will only work in the 16-pixel size. In that way, it will kinda “break the rules.” But i don’t think this icon will be used anywhere else in any other size, so i guess it’s a compromise i’ll have to take. For now, i’m using the diamond bookmarklet icon.
