Orange is too close to the color of the ruler. The yellow is just too bright, it makes it harder to see handle and blades as one and distinct from the ruler. The black on the wiki has the advantage of maximizing contrast while being classy and calm.

It's a bit on the edge between looking like a different colored material and the variations that you get with metal.

The L shape helps to avoid the problematic negative spaces you have with the triangle. Those make the first design harder to read in smaller sizes. Or maybe it's just the strong diagonal falling line that bothers me. The upper blade seems to be darker. I would expect a tiny shadow cast by the upper blade on the lower blade (only large version).

Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] applications-accessories
I like, but maybe an orange handle for the scissors instead of black? I like the black pair better, btw. :) Smartboy On Tue, Dec 2, 2008 at 10:13 AM, spg76 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I uploaded to the wiki a couple of icons for applications-accessories. > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/BreatheIconSet/Submissions > -- > Seba (AKA spg76) > http://www.ubuntu-ar.org > > -- > ubuntu-art mailing list > ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art > > -- ubuntu-art mailing list ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art
