This case is very simple, if you want to maintain the human style, seen
in the rest of the icon set, has to be orange, Otherwise, wear green. 

Personally I am inclined to orange.

Ok ok. Let's not get /too/ carried away here. While I do see what you
mean remember the size at which these are going to be used. Even if they
pop up somewhere at the default 48px I *still* think that you'll miss
this difference between the 2 versions.

Now, this is not to say I won't upload a revision if anyone would like
to make it but for now I will upload Sebastien's current revision.

I am having trouble explaining what I perceive as the difference between
Sebastian's green and the modification by Milan's, but the I definitely
agree with Yann's conclusion that Milan's looks more like real fluid. The
way the outline of the meniscus looks, the way that some light plays into
the rear of the bottle a little bit, the softening of the white overlay, the
variety of shades used ranging from light yellows to dark greens; the effect
of Milan's fluid is much more appealing than the original.

For what it's worth, I loved the original orange colors. There is very
little green in the set, and I believe that there is much to say for color
continuity. The red color still says "science" in a way that's less
comic-book and cliché, as well as fitting better with the rest of the icon
set. Please reconsider the fluid color!

Green for me, seems more fitting.

What about some bubbles? It's nice and beatiful, but a little bit
boring. ;) This coulour is danger, with bubbles more ... :)
I don't think it would be too overloaded with some bubbles more ...

The problem I have with the bottle is that the top is at eye level,
but the liquid is tilted too far to your eye, so it makes the icon
look weird. Perhaps make the top of the jar tilted a bit?

Actually, we often cover those with a specialized type of plastic wrap
called parafilm which is waxy and elastic so that when we stretch it tight
over the top, it contracts and forms an airtight seal around the top. It is
much easier to put on and take off than corks, less expensive to replace,
lower risk of contamination... so it's pretty much industry standard these
days.

So, if you want to make it say "science", you could definitely show the top
of the bottle covered in parafilm. (image attached)

Agreed. I'd either use the rubber stopper or drop the detail. If I had
to pick, I'd drop the stopper.

Nice cork, but such a jar would be closed with a rubber plug, if it all.
I think it's a superfluous detail with a risk to make people think of
wine rather than science.

Ok wait. Who the *hell* wants science without danger?!! Where's the fun
in that? :P

Generally I think this is fine Sebastien. Tinker if you like.


What else on the wiki do you think is ready to upload?

My votes are:

* start-here (as long as the lighting is fixed later)
* accessories-calculator "updated"(with a revision to happen when
  Milan is happy)
* help-about (change "i" once overall font is chosen)
* preferences-system-network
* network-workgroup
