[Bug 73023] Re: Round orange emblems have lack usability

[Byron]

I agree, but not wholy.. I like the way icons are unified in a way, with
similar shapes, but still distinction between them in a way.. However, I
think it also has something to do with the placement of the emblems, the
way you perceive the image as a whole..

As i see it, when you look at it, you see a folder first, then some
undistinguishible 'emblems' sort of floating above them, and then the
text line beneath the folder icon.. Then you have to look a second time
to see what each folder is, in both cases, either with the orange ones
as with the tangerine-emblems..

Wouldn't it be a far better idea to make folder icons with emblems on
them instead of floating emblems (see bug attachment (screen taken on a
mac, hey, i'm a graphic designer!? ^_^ ), so that you minimize the space
used, thus maximizing what you perceive..
