[ubuntu-art] A small suggestion

2006-10-01 Thread Cyphase
Hey everyone,

This is my first email to the art list, although I've been subscribed
for a while..

I was thinking that in Edgy, there should be icons for different types
of directories, e.g. a Music directory icon, a Photos directory icon,
etc. Also, maybe the ~/Desktop directory should have the "Desktop"
emblem as it's icon instead of as an emblem, like it is in the Places
menu. Just a random idea I thought I'd throw out there.

You guys did great with Dapper. I can't wait to see what new style you
cook up for Edgy.

This spec is more a ubuntu-desktop spec rather than an artwork spec.

why do none of your specs show up here:

https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-art/+specs ?

it seems that they should, but they don't.

Hello,

That is a good idea. Mandriva already use such directory and integrate
them in the places menu. I wrote spec braindump about that.

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-places

And welcome to the art team.

Étienne.

I don't mean emblems. I mean the directory icon being replaced by a
different icon, like in Finder on Mac. There's an icon for the Music
directory, Movies directory, etc. Same thing with the Desktop folder.
The emblem should be the directory icon.

Again, it's just an idea.
