Normally, the icons in <br>the notification area are changed by a). the icons theme currently<br>applied (nm-applet) or b). the application itself (pidgin). Having some<br>separate icon set would break this. What about applications we don't <br>plan for? The icons would look out of place. What if the icon theme is<br>changed? Would the notification area icons remain the same, or would<br>they use the new theme?</blockquote><div><br>We can't just give up because we cannot control all 3rd party apps. No matter how hard we try they can always hard code icons and theming and break visual consistency. <br><br>I think it is feasible to create enough icons to make the experience smooth for the majority of the users.<br><br>People who stray from the path and install 3rd party apps are also likely to value those apps more than the stock ones. After all they took the effort of installing it. That means that more visible (coloured) icons might not be that bad after all. <br><br>The primary goal for having monochrome icons is to reduce overall visual clutter. Even though we have one or two 3rd party apps breaking the monochromeness we still have reduced the overall visual clutter compared to the current color-orgy. <br></div><br><br>Cheers,<br>Mikkel<br></div> -- <br>ubuntu-art mailing list<br><a href="mailto:ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-art@lists.ubuntu.com</a><br>https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-art<br></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
