This could be related to the gradients. I'll take a look at the PNGs but I

I think you should really lower the opacity of the whitish gradients on
black metal, looks really strange atm D:

Ok. Bit of bad news. Only 3 of the icons can be used atm. They are all
in the menu but the logout/shutdown dialogs use other icons. "Reboot"
for instance uses a stock "Refresh". "Hibernate" uses a drive icon. I'll
see what can be done but for now that's where we are.

Everything is uploaded to BZR. I'm updating the wiki now.

Sebastien. You might wanna look over the rendered .pngs. The edges look
a little jagged.

I have a question (up and coming graphics artist here). Did you use
any clip paths in those buttons? I would think that using clip paths
and blurred gradients for the outside around the button could make it
look better. If I had the SVGs, I could play around a bit to see if I
can get what I am thinking to work. Would you mind sending them to me
as well as to Cory? :)

I really like both options, but the brushed metal icons will really
stand out with darker themed panels.  The options with the black rings
will most overall suit all various color schemes.  Nice work on both.  I
vote for the options with the black rings, but that just my two cents.

I think they look great. I think they look great with shadows when they
stand alone like this, but I think when placed on the bar and the other
various ui placements that they will need the non-shadowed icons.

Niice. So I think it comes down to whether or not we use the
shadows. Maybe drop the shadows on 32px down?

Yeah, I thought about this when I give the image that I uploaded another

I'll fix it on the next version.

You're right, doesn't look centered. The problem it's that I used the align
feature from Inkscape, and I probably selected the wrong object :)
I, also, will fix this on the next version.

I like 'em. The only think that stands out to me is the shine on the
middle circle. It goes evenly into the black symbol which I assume is
routed out into the aluminum so would be recessed. So I would think the
shine wouldn't be even. The black symbol gets obscured where it should
stand out.

This is also supposed to look spiral brushed aluminum? I think it's

Just watch color choices and I think you'll be fine. Maybe drop the ring
at 16px? I think just at 16px because I wanna see how the other sizes

I like this idea but I don't know how it would look in the small sizes.
I'll refine the "buttons" that I made so far (thanks Cory for the tutorial).
And then I gonna give it a try to this last idea.
Thank you everyone.

This is what I thought of when pushbuttons came up. I figure the
silver/grey in the style of Seba's system monitor and terminal and the
Power, shutdown, restart...etc shapes could look illuminated.

Just an idea.

I do like that but this still got me thinking about the button thing.

Maybe these are good ideas:

Another thing that I forgot to write before hitting send. The gradient 
for the outer ring is at a weird angle. I think it needs to be at the 
same angle with the shadows for the arrows/ inner circle stroke.

I love it! There is only one thing that I can think of to make them 
better.  Add a glass layer to the inner circle. see the

archive-insert-directory icon and look at the plus sign to see what I mean.

I don't know, really. They just looked decisively wrong. Anyway, the new

Oh, oh, oh!! I like the bevel on it now but you know what it reminds me
of if you made the outer part/ring a different color? A push button.
Kinda like ones on an elevator.

You think we can try that outer ring in a different color so as to make
it look like that? Maybe a black or light gray?

I think they look a little too Tango. Isn't that what we're trying to avoid?
Perhaps more gloss would do the trick.

Good start, but I think they need some texture. They look VERY fake right

Whoa.  Those are almost perfect.  This is the exact idea/finish I had
had envisioned, just don't have the talent to do so.  Very nice addition
to my favorite icon set that I've been using for a while now.

I think they will work. I'm iffy about the color strength. Maybe we
should use something like the ones I showed in the 1st post? But I like
the finish on them. Good start. :)
