I want to stress that this bug is so much of a problem that most Howto and wiki now explain how to change the emblems.
I don't discuss the I-like-or-not fact, I insist that it's about usability. I've exactly the same issue as the original reporter. The Human icon them is not "usable" anymore. Emblems are not a feature anymore, just dead code. I really like the coloured proposition. I want to bring some illustration to this concept with the (wonderful) NautilusSVN plugin. If you install it on Ubuntu, it's simply not usable : http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/11/06/nautilus-svn-and-new-emblems/ You have to follow the tricky howto and to download original TortoiseSVN icons in order to make it works, which is a shame. In several cases I know, migrating an user from Windows to Linux was a not-so-good experience *only because of this*. All was perfect then, when they ask for a Tortoise equivalent and I installed NautilusSVN, they said : "This is not usable". If I install the icons "Wow, Linux is so tricky. It's only for geeks". Those are tiny details we should really avoid in Ubuntu. -- Round orange emblems have lack usability https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/73023 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
