Quoting Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Making it grown maket it more ugly.. Those file cabinets like this are mostly silver or white or a combination of it. try to play with those colors.

I left outline to grey colours to see how it works. Otherwise, I will set to brown. I'd definitely set it to brown. The grey-brown combination looks a little strange. As for the outline width, I'd keep 0.75 px and rather modify the shape a little to fit into pixel grid with vertical lines.

It should display fine now using blur and gradient on shadow area. I'd definitely set it to brown. The grey-brown combination looks a little strange. As for the outline width, I'd keep 0.75 px and rather modify the shape a little to fit into pixel grid with vertical lines. Outline set to 0.75 px and switched to brown colour.

Definitely looks better. To me it looks nearly OK. I only noticed that it's still not perfectly aligned to pixel grid (or at least it seems so, I haven't checked the SVGs yet) - vertical lines seem a little blurry. You might also want to add more contrast between outlines and fills in the smaller icons to better define the shape. And one idea - perhaps try different colour/style for the handles? It's fine as it's now, but it could perhaps be better, but if you don't think so, just leave them as they are now ;-) Luya Martin signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

You might also want to add more contrast between outlines and fills in the smaller icons to better define the shape. OK, I went ahead and fixed the 48x48 and 16x16 versions. As I suspected, the 48x48 one was about 0.5 px off in x direction, so moving the drawer a little to the left helped to fix the alignment. I also did some further fixes to problems I noticed in the SVG and/or improvements: * added gradient to outlines so that at the bottom of the icon the contrast between outline and fill is still non-zero * slightly edited the shadow as I liked it * minor fix to cases fills size and handles size/position * played a little with the outlines width Would be good if you made similar fixes to the other sizes (22x22 and 32x32; 24x24 can be created in gimp from 22x22 by adding 1px wide transparent border to it).
