Android application crashes when I change the icon in Android Manifest

When I change the:

android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"

to

 android:icon="@drawable/yellow_sun_symbol"

The app crashes instantly upon launch. I have already placed the different resolution pictures in the drawable folders with the correct name.

Can anyone remedy my issue?

Thanks for your help in advance

EDIT:

The logcvat file shows this:

I have spell checked the XML and everything is fine, no red lines anywhere. The file I am using is called 'yellow_sun_symbol' and it is located in all of the drawable folders under the same name, but with different resolutions.

The AndroidManifest.xml is:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.zstock"
    android:versionCode="1"
    android:versionName="1.0" >

    <uses-sdk
        android:minSdkVersion="14"
        android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/yellow_sun_symbol"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/Theme.Sweetorange" >
        <activity
            android:name="com.example.zstock.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

When I change the @drawable/yellow_sun_symbol to @drawable_ic_launcher it works fine. There is probably some minor detail that I am missing here since I'm a total beginner at this.

Thanks in advance once more!
