I just like the simplicity of the icon. It has the number 1 there and also a down arrow, which seems to indicate downloading.

Long ago I wanted to make a new icon representing one-click-install. Do you think you could work something out with this icon instead?

or this one

These icons are pretty candy...but I don't think we can brand that much.

You see, I searched Google, and find it's really hard to find a new "download" icon or a new "click" icon.

They all looked like the same arrow pointing to the downside and a hand.

So I think they have become a fixed usage...there's no much space left for us to reinvent an icon telling users "aha, this is a download, well, that is a one-click-download".

Because they may simply don't even wanna know the difference...

They may just wanna know: oh, this is a "software" download. this is from "openSUSE". They just need know where they'll be redirected and what they'll start to download...a link and the texts are enough for them to know it's a download...

So I think placing an icon telling him it's "openSUSE" or "software batch" might be more helpful.

What do you think, man?

PS: I think we need to draw an icon for the .ymp mimetype. Because currently on openSUSE, those files are displayed as a plain text file....so I think we need something like this [1] to tell them it represents a "software pack"
