Well, we tried a *ton* of iterations on both new concepts as well as refreshes of the original icon, most centered around gears and other traditional text associated items. There were a few abstract and off the wall concepts as well (like a squid, robots, etc). But at the end of the day, the traditional gear or text icons were just too generic; they could have worked for any text or code based app.
So we decided to just make a beautiful and memorable icon based on the familiar Textmate colors and the african daisy seemed a nice fit since it naturally matches the color and flowers have various elements working together for a single purpose (it also roughly mimics the shape of a gear).
So ask yourself, after seeing the icon and launching the app, will you ever forget that this is the icon for Textmate? Does an icon really need a literal representation to achieve a mental association?
