[Bug 38090] Re: Icons which are too orange and that look nothing like what they are supposed to portray

[Matthew East]

reopening, with new description

** Description changed:

- Two icons particularly grate:
+ I'm going to edit the description to make this bug more focused, and
+ reopen it. Sorry for the confusion.
  
- * The icon used for the "Keyboard" preference in GNOME looks nothing like a keyboard.
- * The icon used for the trashcan looks like a battery monitor - incredibly confusing.
- 
- Also, the icons in general are much too orange: I like orange in the new
- theme but these icons have to appear alongside non-orange icons (e.g. in
- the Places) menu, and the contrast looks really bad.
+ We all know that these icons are too orange. However, there is a
+ specific problem I'd like to draw attention to: in the Places menu and
+ on the Desktop, the orange icons appear alongside a number of
+ white/silver/blue icons, and this causes a striking contrast which can
+ only be described as a bug. I'll attach a screenshot, note the conflict
+ between these colours.

** Changed in: ubuntu-artwork (Ubuntu)
       Status: Rejected => Unconfirmed

** Summary changed:

- Icons which are too orange and that look nothing like what they are supposed to portray
+ Colour clash in icons on the Places menu and the desktop

** Attachment added: "icons.png"
