Bug Description

Binary package hint: abiword

The current abiword icon is small, which helps detract from the user experience when using applications like Gnome Do, which display large sized icons by default (it gets upscaled and does not look very nice).

running ubuntu lucid.
abiword 2.6.8-5ubuntu2

Attaching a screenshot of the abiword icon as seen when launched by Gnome Do.

Still an issue in Precise. Pixelization of the icon can be seen (in increasing order of severity) in the launcher, dash, and Ubuntu Software Center.

As mentioned by christhehorton, the pixelation is evident elsewhere too. Here is a screenshot showing the pixelation in the alt-tab switcher.
