Actually, I find that the most productive distinction is in bit-depth of the images. Fer instance, I have only 8-bit color for X. So I don't want flashy, color-consuming icons. I want simple, hopefully shared colormap icons. But some have 24-bit color and want their desktop to look like a videogame, so they want tons of colors. It would be fabulous if windowmanagers had a little toggle for the hi-color and low-color icon directories. .....A. P. [EMAIL PROTECTED]<URL:http://www.onShore.com/>
