The current cart icon isn't so hot on darker backgrounds, or for anyone to modify to their site's colour scheme. Here's a non-antialiased one that's similar to what we've used in some of our themes, which is the same size as the current UC cart icon (and drawn by me, thus fine for GPL). Since it's pixelly with flat edges, it's easy to change to another colour, and works fine on dark backgrounds.
Thoughts?

rszrama commentedThoughts? I'd give you a big fat bearhug if we were still in DC. I cringe every time I see the existing shopping cart icon on a dark background. My only beef is it's a little difficult to see that the cart actually has stuff in it. Any way to show that a little clearer? For example, the current full icon has products bulging out the top of the cart in addition to removing the transparency.

stephthegeek commentedYay!
It's a little hard to see on Garland because it's a shaded background, clearer on other themes... but fair enough, here's a version that has more goodies piled up in the cart :)

stephthegeek commented(also, these are 8-bit PNGs with transparency rather than 24-bit, so will have no problems with PNG transparency in IE6)

Island Usurper commentedThey look good, Steph!
Here's the patch I committed, minus the part about the binary files.
