We currently use the attached but it contains a "4" which won't be relevant for long. Please alter that, or create a new one to represent the following snippet. Thanks!

I should also mention this snippet links here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/features/

Would be nice to have within the next 7 days. Thanks!

I know we're avoiding FF logos in the snippets since there's a big one already on the start page, but an obvious option is swapping out the 4 with the logo

assigning to Lee.

Shall we brainstorm some ideas around what icon graphic could represent "features" ? Not sure if I have any brilliant ideas here aside from the obvious suggestion in Comment #3.  Sean, any thoughts?

Attachment: features graphic

Not sure if this helps, but we used this "Features" graphic for a newsletter submitted back in late March...

Thanks Lee, aren't you on PTO for your BIRTHDAY ?  no more emails from you Mr.!

Yes, I remember that graphic.  Except that for a snippet we have major size constraints.  So, that won't work.  But, how about we use the happy home icon for this?  I'm a big fan.  Thoughts?

[Tara (musingt)]

To clarify, I meant the same little graphic with the home icon inside it.  Not the home icon by itself.  Let me know what you think.

Attachment: features snippet - 01

Here's a pass at the Features snippet...basically, a scaled down collection of 3 features (that look decent, at that small of a size.)

Comment 9

[Tara (musingt)]

I like !!!  what do others think?

Comment 10

[John Slater]

Each feature looks a little small to me...will people know what they're looking at?

Comment 11

[Laura Forrest]

I think these are really cute but agree 3 together they may not translate well to tiny snippet sizes. 

How about slicing up each of them individually, and only showing one at a time? We can use the smiley face, lightbulb, and wing-shoe in different places at different times. No need for the dotted circle treatment, just the simple callouts will do it.

Comment 12

[Tara (musingt)]

Using one at a time certainly works.  But I thought that we wanted a more generic icon that represents "all features"... or simply more than one.  So, Lee took 3 icons and squished them.  I really like the happy home icon... but not sure if using that would be confusing since "home" usually refers to your home-page and so forth.  But if we want to use a single icon, that works for me.  But keep in mind that the copy (as far as I understand) is about all features, not just the one we're showing.  

Which one(s) do you recommend?

+1 for the happy icon.

[Tara (musingt)]

SO CUTE !  that's what I had suggested in the beginning anyway... sorry Lee to have you go the "long" way :)   are we good here Lofo? or do you need more.

[Lee Tom]

If LoFo is good with this, the attachment in comment 14 is good to go ...40x50px,transparent png.

Go Happy Icon! This one is fine. And I do think it's fine to use this one home icon to represent the others, since this blue bubble treatment is what we use through the site when talking about features. 

Thanks Lee and Tara!
