Hi, I'm along the lines of Werner, Anita, Marco... The new "gis" icon set looks much more professional than the old icon set and the look of the icon set actually gives the software a whole different look. From what I've read here, the main concern lies on the add layer icons which look too s

Hi Marco, I'm afraid I respectfully disagree. A "short adaptation period" won't make the icons more obvious. I'm not a big QGIS user. If I want to use /any/ function in QGIS, I have to stare at the icons and use the tooltips to figure out what button does what, so I'm not "adapted" to the 1.8 set,

Agree as well with Werner and Anita. It is just matter of a short adaptation period. Ciao On 05/24/2013 01:34 PM, Anita Graser wrote: Hi, -1. I agree with Werner. Having used the "gis" icon set for many months, I have problems using the old ones. That's just how the human mind works. Let's imp

Hi Jonathan, You are right. Problem with new icons is that we have started with some idea (add raster, vector, PostgreSQL layer) and end up with several icons of the same type. First three icons are different, however have too many elements. Next are worse, and Oracle and others wait for more

Hi, I fully agree with Werner and Anita. "gis" theme is consistent, clear and looks much better then old icons. Maybe all we need is only some small improvements in color scheme as suggested by Robert. So, -1 for keeping old icons. 2013/5/24, Anita Graser : > Hi, > > -1. I agree with Werner. Hav

Hi, -1. I agree with Werner. Having used the "gis" icon set for many months, I have problems using the old ones. That's just how the human mind works. Let's improve the "gis" icons where it makes sense but let us focus or work on one set. Best wishes, Anita On Fri, May 24, 2013 at 1:14 PM, Wer

Hi! -1 for keeping the old Icons.. I'd rather vote to probably leave them for 2.0 but get rid of them afterwards.. It does not make any sense to have different sets of icons .. And as GRASS is using the same icon set in their GUI it does indeed make sense to use it probably in every open source G

I would like to ask the "powers that be" to keep the old and trusted icons. They never failed me and the gui is quite uplifting. The new set may be technically better but is not as friendly to users. Please keep both. Duarte De: Jonathan Moules [mailto:jonathanmou...@warwickshire.gov.uk] Envia

+1 i.e. The difference between the "Add PostGIS layers" and "Add SpatiaLite layers" is that one has a regular cylinder and the other has a fat-waisted hour-glass cylinder - about 20-30 pixels are different in an icon that's got 1024 pixels! I have to look at them in detail to see the differences.
