Usage of SVG will probably fix the "pixelated" effect you have with PNG.

Here you go
thanks. I got it now.
I have a proposal to add the sun symbol to the rose.
Thanks! I think the app icon is almost perfect like this.
Maybe the color contrast of the yellow against the blue/brown is a bit harsh, but then we want the sun to stand out and be bright, so I guess it's fine. The sun could even be a little bit bigger to stand out more.

I had the same feeling, so I changed the color a bit.
And I just layered the sun with the regular blue instead of the shadow to create contrast with the background.As you suggested I also enlarge the sun.
So now you have an idea of the different solutions.
[Edit] Or you might prefer with the flaming sun...
-
@AppLee Nice. I have to admit that I can't actually see the flames on the device, but I'm just a sucker for them
And the flame version also happens to have more yellow surface pixels, so I'd go with that.I also tried the svg rose on the map now. Even the svg comes out pixelated though.

@AppLee I want to commit the the icon. Do you want to make a merge request yourself to make sure, your copyright is captured properly? Or shall I just add it on your behalf? If you want to MR it, just stick it into the assets folder. I can do the rest.

Too bad, I'll try to make another version with that in mind.
Regarding the commit, you can do it, I'm just glad you like it and that I could be of some help.[Edit] If you want I can cleanup and send you the SVG file.

That'd be great! I assume the svg is the preferred format to make modifications. I'll put it alongside the png. Assuming you agree I put them both as GPL v3, or later, same as the rest of the app, but with your copyright.

@doniks No problem PNG + SVG in GPLv3 is fine.
SVG is the format used for vector graphics (it actually means Scalable Vector Graphics). This is the format used by Inkscape which is like The Gimp but for vector graphics...SVG is like a source code for pictures...
Here is the clean file:
