Hi,
I reed plus sign like 'Add' . Perhaps Folder icon suits better when you are
opening something that is ready made, that is, stored project? Quite othen you
are building your project by collecting data from different places into your
collection and using + sign is rather intuitive. Not so important though, I
believe both ways can be learned.

Hi Paul,
I think the menu icons are fine and great for new users. The + icon
on the toolbor is for ESRI users like the reviewer and long-time JUMP users.
It is more important to please both users than following an kind of design
aesthetic.

Larry,
I think we should have our own GUI/Icon style rather than just
following
the design of ESRI tools, Now when coming up with that style we
can take
into account design elements such as what is used in general
software
and also GIS software so that any computer user would be able
to work
out the function of the icon.
As a compramise, let's have the following icons for the open
menu items
and toolbar (slightly different from now)
Open... The folder with the +
Open File... The folder with a page
Open Project.. The folder with the project you created.
Uwe,
I'm not sure why you think the new Open Wizard is a hard way to
load
PostGIS tables, in the old method you selected a drop down then
entered
the parameters. With the new one you double click an icon and
then enter
the parameters. And if someone wants to they can create a new
panel for
the parameters to include validation of those parameters,
Paul
