Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] applications-development, system-file-manager and gnome-screenshot

2008-12-16 Thread David Z
You have really outdone yourself on these icons.

The only one I still don't fully "agree with" would have to be the
applications-office icon. As previously said, the thought that comes
to mind is: "ipod," and I think that will the the same thought of many
of ubuntu users. I was thinking, perhaps a man (somthing like:
http://www.myneth.com/assets/imgs/manOutline.gif ) with a bright
colored tie.

But the three new icons are absolutely killer. I really like the
inward bevel (or inward shadow, cant tell xD) of the white label above
the handle of the system-file-manager

Great work on the trowel for applications-development. 

The sharp contrast on the metal makes it a bit hard to read and it is
not that pronounced on reference images I just googled.

Please try a wooden handle ;)


On system-file-manager, the labels are not clear. Can easily be seen as
filled rectangles in a white area instead of an empty frame. Maybe turn
this into full, white labels?

It could be of benefit to move the labels over to the left, to leave
more air for the handles.

gnome-screenshot: A dark grey or even black frame for the display would
help to make the polaroid stand out. One window on the screens should
suffice and help with the smaller sizes. For 16px, you might want to go
with just the polaroid.

Good thing you are not using just a camera icon as seen in some icon
sets, as that is bound to clash with photo-apps :)

I uploaded to the wiki a new version as you suggested.

I'm gonna try a different perspective.

I uploaded a quick edit to the wiki just to see how it looks.

I uploaded to the wiki a version with a pallete (it doesn't have the small
sizes, though).

I made some other icons. I'll send another message to the list with the
announcement when I upload them to the wiki.
