Haha, used gpt4o to generate it. What change do you want to see in that fox appearance? Any change should be a prompt away :)

Why a fox? The browser is based on Chrome. Firefox basically owns having a fox as a mascot in the browser space. Why not pick something original? The fox confusing at best, but some may say misleading. Same goes for the name.

  • Thanks for the feedback. Honestly—we just reused the icon we had gotten professionally designed for the last idea we were working on (https://felafax.ai/).

    But not gonna lie, as a tiny startup, we don’t have marketing budget of Perplexity or Dia, so we picked a name and icon that at least hinted at “browser” right away. Definitely not trying to mislead anyone -- just needed something recognizable out of the gate.

    • You stated in the parent comment that you used GPT4o to generate it, but now you're saying you had a professionally made icon? I don't understand.

    • It doesn’t look like you reused that icon. It looks like you generated a new one with AI. So it could have been any animal (or not even an animal at all).

It makes me question your honesty. If you want a fox logo then build it as a Firefox fork. If you do that I will trust you again.

The text is very off-center and the AI "vibe" is palpable. Hire a designer or at least take the time to add the text to a free SVG yourself.
