Super Andy rules ;)

Leonardo Gandini commented on 2013-01-23 at 20:06:

and another time android community (and I'm part of it of course) demonstrated to not understand what works (in terms of design, logo design and "public image") and what doesn't! Man... Seriously... first +CyanogenMod and now this... I really don't understand WHY!!!?? :( Anyway..... I'm the only one? Maybe I'm wrong....

Chainfire commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:10:

+Leonardo Gandini considering that everybody pretty much disagrees with you, I would indeed say you're wrong. Besides, you have the choice of four different icons, and it's still not good enough for you? Did you yourself submit one? If so, which one, so we can all complain about how terrible it is for a while.

The Doctor commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:10:

Yes +Leonardo Gandini you are on an island of one. The people have spoken

Pete Best commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:11:

I love the fun factor in android iconography, Super Andy is just a part of that!

Niall De Barra commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:21:

Well all that for nothing XD

Leonardo Gandini commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:24:

So what you +Chainfire are saying is if I cannot submit a better one I'm not allowed to say nothing? If this is your point ok, "flame closed" man! I've nothing more to say! Oh and ok +Mike Even ... Gotcha..... :-\

Chainfire commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:40:

+Leonardo Gandini No, if you had cared to read, I said that if you did submit one, let us know which one so we can tell you why it also sucks. The point of that is that there are as many opinions as there are people - and you could have been less aggressive in voicing your own opinion. And since all you do is claiming it all sucks, instead of providing proper alternatives or at least commenting why you believe this to be the case, yes, your comment is useless. 

Leonardo Gandini commented on 2013-01-23 at 21:51:

Less aggressive like"case closed" :-) ? Anyway I'm fine, I've nothing more to say, I was "so aggressive" just because every damn day surfing and living in the android world I see horrible graphics made by amazing coders, and there's no way to tell them nothing so... Thanks for your amazing apps that I'm using every day and go forward! You've of course my support +Chainfire !

Daniel Maguire commented on 2013-01-23 at 22:02:

It's just an icon guys! The whole point is to give an application an easily recognisable identity and Super Andy does just that!

Ibrahim Awwal commented on 2013-01-24 at 00:46:

Yay, I really like Super Andy actually although #2 is pretty nice too!

Joe Baker commented on 2013-01-24 at 02:40:

I liked the emblem one the best but I voted for Andy to :D

Edwin Chenoweth commented on 2013-01-24 at 03:47:

When will this be active? I can't wait to get that cape wearing fairy out of my app drawer once and for all. Lol jk

Chris Lefebvre commented on 2013-01-24 at 06:09:

Super Andy was my vote. I like that icon.

Chainfire commented on 2013-01-24 at 09:50:

+E.E. Chenoweth This will be in the next update, which should be released pretty soon.

Kévin Lall commented on 2013-01-29 at 14:34:

Chainfire's one is the best!

Roberto Mezquia Jr commented on 2013-02-02 at 00:08:

wow... i submitted mine months ago and had forgotten all about this contest... i wonder where mine ended up? :)

and i like the submission from +Phlash Tha the most too!

Paul Lukitsch commented on 2013-02-04 at 07:02:

I liked the pound sign. Super Andy is a little lame. I think the "#" sums up the whole point of the app simply. But perhaps it just needs an overhaul. A better 3D one in illustrator or a 3d app for instance.

I know the contest is over, but I might do one and send it to you.

Paul Lukitsch commented on 2013-02-04 at 07:06:

Second one isn't bad though, but for my own creative sake, I still might send you one. You can post it in a "rejected hall of fame" if it is any good.

By the way, I want to say that I do vary much like your app. It's strange that after all the bugs that Superuser has had, people still use it. If I am involved in any way in the development of a Rom, I argue vigorously for SuperSu. It just works flawlessly.
