Since not everyone approves of the new icon, here is a new poll.

Basically it's just the border and the inner glow/shadow effects.
Top left - dark frame, bright inner glow Top right - bright frame, bright inner glow Bottom left - bright frame, inner drop shadow

Yeah, I know you are probably tired of seeing new icons all the time, but I'm just not satisfied with any of them. Here is a new one (that I really like). What do you think?

I actually really like that one a lot. i love the ion beam and i guess its a change from always using the Mother ship.

Prefer the mothership one. Lets people know what they start with rather than something which takes a long while to get

Ok, I see your point, but consider this: The icon is one of the main marketing aspects of any app. The new icon shows more what this game is about (space combat)! An icon needs to stand out and although the Aegaeon becomes part of the game at a very late stage, its ion cannon effect is best suited for this task. The mothership icon is just too "passive" and the current icon looks really fake, as lockon777 has already pointed out. Try to see the whole thing from a marketing perspective. Which icon would appeal more to you, if you didn't know the game?

If you want combat why not have the Mothership firing its weapons?
Also I don't like the new one because I don't like the background actually...
Also it seems kinda bright, but that could just be me.

Well, the mothership just doesn't have a cool, stylish weapon like the Aegaeon. The background & brightness can be changed easily. Perhaps I should upload another version with a new background / the one from the old icon.

Here's the same icon with the old background.
