MailPlane updates with New Icon

MailPlane, the GMail desktop email application updated their version to 1.45 this past weekend. One of the first changes is the new icon for the application. The developer of MailPlane, Ruben Bakker, approached icon designer Jonas Rask to come up with something to replace their current 'flat' icon. The result is here in this post which I think it's am much more lively looking icon.



Also the new mail badge icon was changed to a chartreuse which I kind of felt was a little tough to read over the read & white. Other improvements include on the fly spell checking thanks to MailPlane using Macs built-in spell checker, Choosing Spam, Archive or Discard in a separate window will close the window following the action. Bug fixes are included in this release as well. MailPlane is still in beta but they are giving away invitations to try it out and still no word on any sort of pricing.
