The next day he told me that had got his mind turning with the theme of 80's tech, the synonym for coffee and the color palettes of the time. He couldn't help but to design the icon and do all the adjustments for the size ramp that those guys have to do. He contributed it but wished to remain anonymous. There was a psd file but I either never got it or misplaced it, I'm not sure which.
