We will read all those comments. Thanks. ******************************************************* Today's new Software Center icon does not appear to me to be an improvement over the old design. The new design seems to forget that icons should be legible at a variety of sizes. Even at 128 x 128 pixels (which I think may only be used in the default Ubuntu install in the new Alt-tab switcher and the Software Center itself when looking at the Software Center's install page itself in the Software Center), the individual components are nearly impossible to make out. This could be fixed by using the same large category icons (earth and calculator) or at least the same scale. Two or three components instead of 10 would be a big improvement. Also, a stuffed and slightly overflowing bag (like the previous icon) is a better visual metaphor than items either exploding from the bag (as it looks when not against a white background, ie in the dash or in the launcher) or hovering in the air above the bag.
