Request: ZBar Icon

Well, this is more of a contribution then a request I suppose.
I had some spare time this morning, so I fired up my free copy of Axialis Workshop and threw something together in literally five minutes. It's not exactly award winning art, but it's a step up from a red square (well, at least I think so).
It's about 46kb, and contains a whole range of icons.
256x256, 32bit
48x48, 32 bit
24x24, 32 bit
16x16, 32 bit
48x48, 8 bit
32x32, 8 bit
24x24, 8 bit
16x16, 8 bit
48x48, 4bit
32x32, 4bit
24x24, 4bit
16x16, 4bit
Bit of an overkill I'm sure, but it's the 256x256 that takes up most of the room, so I figured, what the heck may as well go all out.
You can find the icon at: http://pillage.us/ZBar/Icon.zip
You don't have to use it if you don't want to, but if you do, it's completely free of charge and I won't come chasing after you for royalties. I promise.

Hey there,
Thanks for doing this. ZBar has needed an icon for a while, and the reason why it's stayed a red square is because the designs I came up with sucked badly, so I figured I'd rather have something obviously not supposed to be an icon, than some poor attempt of mine.
Perhaps I can code, perhaps not, but I know for sure I'm no designer, so it's appreciated that you took the time to create this, and also to share it!
I'm just finishing ironing out a bug I introduced to the latest build here, and then I can upload a new release of ZBar which incorporates your icon as the default, if that't ok?
I'd like to credit you - is "frodeaa" ok, or would you prefer something else??
Thanks! Multi-monitor users salute you!
Tom

You're welcome to use the icon in the new build Tom.
I share your sentiment. I'm also able to code, but not so much with the design. This was more of a 5 minute copy and paste (well, drag and drop actually) job than anything else, so maybe the tool I used deserves more credit than I do 
My full name is Frode Aarebrot, and if you wish to credit me, I'd rather you used that.

Pretty close. I'm actually from Norway.
I think my first name is quite common in Sweden though. My last name is very rare, but it could just as easily have been swedish.
Are you swedish, or of swedish heritage?

No, I'm a relative of "Ötzi".

I've just uploaded v0.7 of ZBar to the web site, which includes your icon, so take a look if you're interested!
