Shutdown button draft for echo-icon-theme
Resuming echo work, here is a draft for a shutdown button. I have tweaked the 16x16 icon using Gimp to display the glowing effect. Sincerely, Luya ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Re: Shutdown button draft for echo-icon-theme
I like the blue you posted first. Maybe you could try changing only the disc colour to red? IMO the blue for the button is nicest. And one other feedback: they don't look smooth on LCD. Perhaps more antialiasing would help. I did it with help-faq icons this way: I generated 2x bigger png than final size, added 1 px gaussian blur in gimp and resized it to desired size, but the amount of size changes and applied effect may differ from icon to icon. Also I am looking forward for the large size version, since this is one of the icons which I use in large size (though most people don't I guess)... :) Luya Tshimbalanga napsal(a): > Mark wrote: >> i would use red for shutdown and blue for standby. >> > > Here is a different models of shutdown and standby icons > > > Luya > > > > ___ > Fedora-art-list mailing list > Fedora-art-list@redhat.com > http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

As the result, the glowing effect is smooth on small size. Speaking about standby, here is the images using yellow glowing. I think the green glowing is useful for rebooting the system. ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list

Re: Shutdown button draft for echo-icon-theme
I eally prefer the shutdown24-3.png and standbyL-4.png, they both are a bit quieter than the blue/red combination and I can see them fitting into the GNOME panel and box more, along with the KDE panel.

Re: Shutdown button draft for echo-icon-theme
i made a shutdown image myselt. it`s not based on any standards and not a svg image. but than again.. i just made it so you have a iidea how i would like to see it. i`m not a icon developer nor am i good at photoshopping.. if you like it you can have the psd file and make a svg image of it :) here is the image: http://img116.imageshack.us/my.php?image=poweroffcopywh1.png the red glow (lower left corner) realy finishes it :) 2007/3/28, Ben Arnold <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I eally prefer the shutdown24-3.png and standbyL-4.png, they both are a bit quieter than the blue/red combination and I can see them fitting into the GNOME panel and box more, along with the KDE panel.

I think these icons not only fit on the menu but also on login screen. Do you prefer the borderless or the border version? If I'm honest, I'll mostly stick with what I said earlier. The borderless versions don't fit with the rest of the Echo set, specifically dialog-* and media-*, because I feel it gives somewhere to 'hit' the icon. The colours are soft, though; I like the orange for hibernate as this is close to the red for shutdown and different enough to the blue for standby. ./b -- ..// seawolf //..

One can perhaps do some 3d like in media-* without sacrificing the symbol distinctive form. (I'd make the same reproach for dialog-close & dialog-ok, though they've managed to stay somehow distinctive with flat & different colours) BTW it may be useful to add little twists to the different shutdown/standby/hybernate icon forms to help colour-blind people. -- Nicolas Mailhot signature.asc Description: Ceci est une partie de message numériquement signée ___ Fedora-art-list mailing list Fedora-art-list@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list
