So do we, but it won't happen by making picayune, derogatory remarks
about the programmers or the product. Do something constructive about
it. Can you, or are you "inspired" to draw icons that "are able to be
liked"?
But I canīt deny that - just for example - ALL the symbols look like
beeing drawn by programmers. Iīm a programmer myself and know that
programmers most often donīt have the inspiration to draw symbols
that are able to be liked.
I am also a programmer, but I also consider myself a kind of graphic
designer, so I don't complain about the new icons. If I didn't like
them, I'd offer some new ones. Your remarks about programmers are
insulting, by the way.
By the way: I follow the development of OO since the days of
StarOffice beeing under the control of Star...
NOTHING has changed since years
You obviously have not seen the new 2.0 work. Before you continue this
attitude, you need to look at the new version, which, as I said, has
been extensively reworked in the UI area. It is NOT "designed by
children doing their first steps." All the icons were re-drawn, and look
very nice.
(despite functionality, but thatīs NOT
all a program needs to reach the masses). For example it starts with
standard option to draw a grey rectangle around a new
"word"-document. I hate this rectangle because of expecting a
WYSIWYG-program. I just donīt get that silly grey rectangle on any
normal piece of paper. This option has to be a additional - not a
standard feature. Otherwise you turn a WYSIWYG-program into bullshit
that has to be turned into WYSIWYG first... Nothing people really
like.
And, please, refrain from profanity on this public forum.
