(1) Sure, I'm willing to help make various image sizes and formats to the
best of my ability.

(2) Aesthetically, I don't really like rectangular icons.

(3) There are light-coloured edge pixels...but then again the icon may be
put against a dark background as easily as a light background, so I'm not
sure about the solution to this. (Maybe: put a greyish outline round
something?)

(4) Vinh suggested a SVG version, which would be nice, but I don't know that
I have the skill to make it.
