Hello Joachim,

  I'm glad I could help in some way.

  I'm thinking it may need to be thicker, and less shaded.

  I'd be happy to work up a BibleTime Application icon if you would like. 
Would you like a clock incorporated in it like the Splash Screen?

  There's an icon included that has a little screw driver and wrench, along 
with color swatches on a book I thought perhaps might be good for an 
options/configuration dialog box (meant for the item mentioned in "Required 
icons"). Would you prefer something a bit more focused on a particular 
configuration item?

  I'll see what I can do. When is 1.1-final going to be coming out?

  Great! :-)

  No, that's fine, it's good to know where I need to work from. :-)
