You mean the 16x16 .ico file looked awful, right? The .png seemed fine to me.

I left the line width as 9 and tried again, and for some reason this
time it doesn't look awful anymore.

Here are the new files.

I suggest adding ffmpeg.ico and ffmpeg9_64.png (probaly renamed
ffmpeg.png) to the repository. The .png so that linux apps may use,
and the .ico so that Windows can use it (I'm sending a patch for this
in a while).
