I'm not a mac user so I haven't bad/good opinion on this, but as far as I know this was an explicit change, no accidental change.

@jkt628 It seems that there were more people who liked the black and white icon. It seems that whatever icon we choose there will be some people who will be unhappy, so we can't revert the change that introduced the black and white icons.

Unfortunately I think there's no way to manually change the icon except by compiling Barrier from source.
