@Oliver... Actually the paleness is lost when the present icon scales down to 24px... but i tried ur idea. and i'v attached the screenshots of the icon in action on a 19px panel... oh and the panel is vertical on the right just to get u oriented.
i think that the presence of the gradients adds the minor feel of lighting, also if the colors get a bit more darker then the visibility of the icon in dark/transparent panels becomes tough. especially in the transparent panels , where the backgrounds vary . cheers, mac_v attachments legend: gradient-is the present icon darker-is with a bit darker shade and no gradients panel-is the present icon on a transparent panel. ________________________________ From: Oliver Scholtz 1 <scholli...@yahoo.de> To: Discussion on Ubuntu artwork <ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com> Sent: Sunday, 31 May, 2009 10:26:05 PM Subject: Re: [ubuntu-art] [Breathe] Network Manager-icons And Mac ... much better!
