    #2... Even though I think #3 is the best overall, I would think you'd want an icon that would immediately give at least a hint of what the actual game is about -- you can't tell squat from the badge icons.

    not 4, 5, 6 please, those are about as boring as it gets.

    and obviously not number 1 or this thread wouldn't be here.

    2 and 3 sound good, as reflected in the poll.

    This is what I'm wondering...the art looks really neat, but won't be good shrunk down to icon size.

    ...don't like any of the other options either

    What I can do is use 2 different icons for the big and small ones, the smaller one being a section from the bigger one, this way it will still look good when small.

    My preference is to take #2 and add "HD" to it! Ok, so what I really want is an iPad version of your game. Any plans for it?

    I have to agree with b00mers and tsharpfilm. #2 with LASW in white letters would be the best.

    btw is the new icon going to be released by itself, or will it also bring new features or a sale?

    Yes, its a few weeks out.

    You can only update the icon when you upload a new version of an app, I already have several changes for the game done, and am adding more every day, you can see the current list here. The update will probably be released in a week or two.

    I agree. #2 is nice, but when smaller it looks like a mess.

    I've been looking at #2 on my iPhone, and it actually looks fine. It's the obvious choice: everything else is generic.

    Could u use #2 but paste the L.S.A.W. on the bottom. It would look sick. BTW is LASW going to be universal, or will a separate ipad version be released. I voted for #3, but 2 also looks nice.
    Also if u used #3 but replaced the white with the red stripes as in number 4 or 5, it would also look great.
