Description

twhitvine[CodePlex]
The cloud on the CUAHSI logo, which is used as the HydroDesktop icon, is drawn as a transparent color on a Windows Desktop. I suspect the cloud is white and the outside border of the image is also white. I think Windows might be using the color on the
border as the transparent color. So, I suggest changing the color of the cloud to not-quite-white, e.g., RGB(250,250,250).

Research direction

Start by locating the CUAHSI logo asset used as the HydroDesktop icon and inspect how its cloud and border colors are rendered on the Windows desktop. Change the cloud from transparent-looking white to the suggested near-white RGB(250,250,250), then verify the icon displays the cloud correctly in Windows.
